Hello you very lovely people, I am warning you now, this is likely to be a very, very long blog, I had written a rambling tale last night after our arrival in Hoh Chi Minh and was bringing my chat to an epic end when I stuck out my foot (bare because we are in a very traditional Vietnamese hotel where you have to remove your shoes before entering) and I poked the off button to the computer with my toe, therefore losing everything I had written.

On the way we were to stop at a beach (I can't remember the name ...

Bonsoir my lovelies, another day, another city in the world of Lee and Kat. I am writing this from the more sedate and very beautiful city of Hue, which we flew into this morning very, very early!
