• Day 15 - Dong Hoi to Hanoi to Ninh Binh

    August 12, 2023 in Vietnam ⋅ ☁️ 33 °C

    Time to head to Hanoi to meet up with Mum and Betsy.
    We wake early, buffet breakfast at the hotel and then taxi ride to Dong Hoi's small airport.
    Very short flight to Hanoi but by the time we collect and store our bags, we have only a couple of hours to kill before Mum and Betsy land.
    So taxi to a small town/ suburb near to the airport. Bit of mobile phone shopping/ looking and then a street-side banh mi (sandwich).
    Then back to the airport ready to welcome the rest of our travelling family!
    ...... Unfortunately took a bit longer than expected to find the bags, and add to that the traffic around Hanoi, we finally made it to the Tam Coc Wonderland Bungalow.
    Gorgeous looking place - time for a swim, and a nice dinner overlooking the rice fields.
