Wandering Hanoi

One last day in Hanoi, how to fill it. Our young friend Jack from the ride was telling us about an ethology museum not far from the old quarter so that was the first port of call.

It was a very well done museum with lots of information about the different tribes on the inside and then a great outdoor display of the different tribal houses and communal buildings. I was really impressed with how well maintained all the buildings were.

Jack also told us about a great Bahn Mi shop, Bahn My Mama, just near St Joseph Cathedral. So a quick ride back there and we couldn’t believe there was no queue. No sooner did we get ours than the line started and got longer and longer. Just one lady making all these Bahn mi. They were first class Bahn mi.

Bit of last minute shopping for bowls, shirts and elastic and just a general wander around.

A couple of cocktails at our favourite 4th floor bar and dinner at The Old Viet Restaurant and we were ready to head off to the airport.

First leg of our journey home.Read more
