Day Two in Hanoi

I hate waking up early.

Especially not when Im in my holiday mood.

But then again it will be so wrong to sleep throughout the trip. So woke up early for breakfast and then a day tour to Halong Bay. A 3-hour bus ride and another 2 hours boat ride. With the tour guide teaching us some local language, this was getting really exciting.

And after such a long ride back, the 6 tofus aka us all went for massage. ML and I decided to go for only foot massage while the rest took the body and foot package. It was hilarious when Lady Di said the Vietnamese did not provide them a top to change.

After that, dinner it was. Went to Highway 4 which was disappointing. The taxi ride there was a con-job. As much as we thought we were getting our money worth by asking him to drive around, we realised we were being cheated instead. Food was ok. Service was so-so. But what pissed us of was that the waiters love the word "FINISH FINISH". Kitchen was close and it was partially our fault for having such late dinner. But then again, we tried the famous locusts. Gives you a terrible after taste... yucks..

And poor Lady Di has nothing much to select from and had to settle for some pastry on the way home. The walk was pretty scary but somehow I guess the people there are not as notorious. It was quite a peaceful walk though half the time I was thinking if anyone will rob us. The walk ended after 1/2 hour after we realise we were walking on the opposite direction to the hotel. hahahahaha... and a cab we took back instead.

End of Day 2.
