Hanoi, Vietnam

Not much to report today.

Got in early from Sapa. headed straight to the gym and to the pool.

We lazed around resting and reading after breakfast and didn’t head out from the hotel until about noon. We tried to get ‘Water Puppet’ tickets but they were not available for our desired time slot.

We then waddled on to visit Cafe 69 located in a traditional Vietnamese House for a beer and some ice cream. It was sooooooooo hot and humid though that we had to head home for the relative cool of the heated pool. The heat has also kept us to our hotel for dinner but we are trying their restaurant, Ba Mien, which features with rave reviews in the Lonely Planet anyway.

Off to Halong Bay early tomorrow so…no blogs for a few days. We are on a Junk for the following two nights.
