The 26 hour bus journey from Vientiane to Hanoi was an experience to say the least. We'd heard horrific stories about these cramped uncomfortable busses.. But when we got on we had our own almost fully reclining sleeper chair with blankets.. Pretty cozy an really didn't seem like 26 hours. The only issue was when we arrived at Hanoi and the bus dropped us off at some lorry depo 12km from the city where all their cousins and mates were waiting conveniently with taxis.. Tried to charge us 300,000 dong each to get to the city. Sure enough me and Jord argued with them, walked off and managed to haggle down to 60,000 dong each (£1.70).
Anyway me and Jord had already booked ourselves into a 5 star hotel thankfully which had FREE fresh fruit, tea and coffee, breakfast and four beds between the two of us.. All for not even £5 a night. Heaven.
