Day 1 -Friday So the journey begins
6 Oktober 2023, Singapura ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C
Well this will be some journey, leave Heathrow at 11:25 am to Singapore, just the one change and on to Hanoi, expecting to arrive on saturday at 11:25 am ! (+7hr time) difference

Well left on time and I'm surprised at how big and comfortable the seat is, plenty of wine, and lunch was really nice (roast chicken &veg, cheese, crackers, bread roll then ice cream, only six hours into flight just between Tbilisi and Baku and already had 3 glasses of wine and a tiger beer 😜

Bought and downloaded an e SIM so I can have internet and phone whilst in Vietnam, download was easy once I'd worked out how to copy qr code, ended up taking a photo of it onto my camera and then scanning the camera screen back onto phone. Well let's hope it works 🤣Baca selengkapnya

Well a good night's sleep on flight to Singapore, probably helped by lots of alcohol and food 😜

Fifty minute stop for next flight to Hanoi and here we are in hanoi, cleared customs, met my guide now just waiting for some more. First impressions very busy, people seem polite and welcoming ....and it's really humid 🫠

Well quite pleased with room, light and airy and Aircon works, we are meeting up at 18:30 tonight for an explanation of what I've let myself in for, and then dinnerBaca selengkapnya

This morning visited the Ho Chi Minh mausoleum , queued up to walk past his body lying in state, very impressive, obviously no cameras inside.
Then it's was on to the two houses he actually lived in and past the 'palatial' one which he used to meet heads of state.Baca selengkapnya

Day 3 Lunch
8 Oktober 2023, Vietnam ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
Restaurant for lunch,then to the Museum of ethnology

I must say the food has been really good, fragrant fresh and tasty and lunch was excellent , just enough for our walk around the museum.

Only a small museum on two floors but it's to show the cultural differences between the many groups that make up Vietnam, with the distinctly Chinese feel to the northern regions but really to show people how diverse the population is.Baca selengkapnya

Hari 3
Day 3 tonight its a walking tour through
8 Oktober 2023, Vietnam ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
Tonight's evening meal is with our guide introducing us to "safe street food", so we are off touring the delicacies.
Started at a place serving beef noodle soup, then moved on to try "proper Vietnamese spring rolls" followed by another site serving egg coffee, which is made with egg and condensed milk being cooked up to a thick almost custard consistency with the coffee then poured in but it settles at the bottom of the cup so you have to then stir it in 🥴
It was ok but I liked the idea that instead of a saucer the coffee cup arrived sat in a bowl of steaming hot water, something I might try with my espresso at home 🤣Baca selengkapnya

Day 4
9 Oktober 2023, Vietnam ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
Today it's a long coach journey through the country to Northern Vietnam's rice terraces in Hoang Su Phi where we will be stopping in an ecolodge in panhou village before setting out for a hike the next day. (God help me what have I done...me hiking 🥴)

What fantastic scenery as we travel into the hills, our guide says we are within 100 kilometers of china

Cant believe the crops, rice, sweetcorn, dragonfruit, oranges, tea, lots of wood drying for plywood.

Stopped at a truck stop for lunch, really nice meal, never had pork in dock leaves before. Took a short video of a motorcycle loaded up with live fish 😵‍💫Baca selengkapnya

Day 4 (pm) Panhou ecolodge retreat
9 Oktober 2023, Vietnam ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
Well after a long drive we ended up at panhou retreat, not quite what I was expecting but as we are hiking tomorrow I'm pleasantly surprised 😎

The grounds are lovely with a spa, massage centre, pool, hot tubs , certainly very relaxing indeed. When I get home I might well click on the qr code and see what it says.

There's no TV or WiFi in the bedroom but I think the idea is to encourage people to relax, and if you need wi fi then it's available in the bar and restaurant, funnily enough no phone signal here either 😜Baca selengkapnya
