Hey peeps! After almost 28 hours of being awake on an airplane, we've finally arrived in Hanoi!
It's a crazy, noisy city, where dicing with death via moped is a daily common occurrence! The guesthouse we're staying in is cheap and cheerful, even if the beds are like sleeping on slabs of concrete. The owner has a psycho cat that wakes us up in the middle of the night by howling like a small child from a Japanese horror movie (think the little kid from The Grudge!).
Spent most of yesterday taking in our surroundings and working out what we are going to do over the next few days (cos Hanoi is driving us up the wall!) - so a 2 day tour booked tomorrow for Halong Bay, along some snorkelling, kayaking, cookery lesson and general relaxing on a large junk boat, can't wait.
For today though, another slightly stressful walk around Hanoi for some cheap tees and sunglasses, with a show this evening via the Water Puppet theatre and maybe a look at a museum beforehand. It's a hard life travelling, but someone's gotta do it...
