Hi chaps.... were now in vietnam. we have left the bright lights of hong kong and gone somewhere which i thought would be much quieter... how we were wrong lol
whilst we were in HK we did lots of stuff... we went on a ferry around the hourbour inbetween knowloon and hong kong! gettin to know the area and where everything is.
we went up Victoria Peak - we went up in a tram and its so steep the buildings were horizontal! we also had tickets to go right to the top so we had a 360 view of hong kong off a mountain which was pretty cool
we went to Ocean Park... this was amazing! i was this or disney and i think i chose right! not sure terry would agree, it was the first type of amusemnt in HK with aminals and few rides! the massive ride was closed but there were pandas so it made up for it. that night we also went to temple st night market and looked at all the ripped off electronics and clothing! this is where terry brought me my amazing panda purse- which was even more amazing after my new appreaciation of the pandas. lol we also ate seafood (well terry did) this was on the road side in the market.. there was also 660ml of beer for about a pound so the food was washed down with a couple of thoes.
we then had enough of the city and its expensiveness and wanted to go to vietnam! id found a route on the net for the trauin and we were on our way! except when we go to china... they wouldnt let us in! THE INTERNET LIED and we go sent back due to not being able to get a visa to travel though! poop! so we went back all annoyed and found ourselves a nice cheap flight to hanoi instead and flew yesterday afternoon! which turned out for the best as we didnt have 3 trains two of which were 10 hrs each!
today we had a look round the main city of hanoi and the markets! it is CRAZY HERE the taxi driver told us that there was 300,000 or something bikes here! they are all over the place 24 7 and all beeping like crazy men! its not so quiet... and our hostel is gd, cheap and lots of youg people.. with a tv rookm, upstairs bar, pool room and internet! though our nets slow so cant upload the photos! despite our numerous attemps. tomorrow were goin on a 3 day bouat crusi thing with hotel one night and stay on the boat the other and go kiacking and all sorts in caves etc so should be fun!
missing you all loads
massive kisses and masssive loves
helen and terry xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
