Hanoi Meracus Day 3

Both of us started the morning feeling the effects of the long travel and the cheap Hanoi beer this morning. We didn't step into the almost unbearable heat of Hanoi until early afternoon. We headed to the train street, which was as crazy as it sounds. The train didn't come when we thought it would (half 3) but it was still great to see the houses bordering the line by metres. the heat was ridiculous so it was a relief when we got to sit inside for a water puppet show. Despite not really knowing what was going on as the dialogue was Vietnamese, it was still an impressive sight.
As night drew in, we felt fresh enough to go out drinking again and met up with Mark and Rosie, who were an english couple we met the previous night. Beer followed beer until we were all pretty drunk. There was a moment of concern when Amy fell down the stairs in the bar, but apart from a few bruises on the arms, we all lived to survive another hot, sweaty day in Hanoi.En savoir plus
