Saturday, 17th December, Sunny Hotel, Hanoi, 8:05pm
Well, considering I spent all of yesterday curled up in bed, only leaving to vomit and feel generally sorry for myself, I don’t have much to add. Actually that’s not entirely true; we did heaps and heaps of stuff today, so I do have a bit to report, but […]
Thursday, 15th December, Sunny Hotel, Hanoi, 3:45pm
SUNSHINE!! Sunshine, sunshine, SUUUUUUUNNNNNSSSSHHHHIIIIINNNNNEEE! The weather here is amazing, nice and cool, a little cloudy, but there’s still a wonderful amount of sun and blue sky. It’s such a relief. Admittedly despite this we’re currently holed up in our hotel rooms, but that’s because a) we spent all […]
Wednesday 14th December, Binh Minh Hotel, Hue, 10:05 am
Our time in Hue has been brief but highly amusing. We caught up with Jamie again, which always results in adventures and new friends. He has this amazing ability to just chat to everyone; it’s the lawyer in him, but it’s more than that. I think people […]
Monday, December 12th, In Transit Between Hoi An and Hue, on a bus with leg room but awful service, where I keep getting jerked around as I’m trying to type. 2:25pm
I’m in a terrible mood. All I can do right now is sigh moodily and frown. It’s not James, I promise. It’s merely a series […]
Friday, 9th December, Thanh Van Hotel, Hoi An, 9:30pm
It’s rare that you can say an eleven-hour bus trip was worth the destination. After the disappointment of Dalat, about 8 hours into our bus trip we started to feel the same indifference toward Hoi An. We told ourselves it was going to be just the […]
Thursday, 8th December, Perfume Grass Inn, Nha Trang, 8:55pm
So much for not having another big night for awhile! I think because the weather has -been so unconducive to sightseeing, the only thing to do in Nha Trang is have nutty, crazy, drunken nights, and then the gloomy, rainy day sleeping it off.
[…]
Wednesday, 7th December, Perfume Grass Inn, Nha Trang, 2:45pm
I’m starting to feel increasingly restless in Nha Trang, but I’m still enjoying it. I’m just currently prone to random hypo-attacks, where I run around the room making animal noises, or start flicking James on the thigh, or make him play lame word games with me. It’s […]
Monday 5th December, Perfume Grass Inn, Nha Trang, 3:30pm
Well! We’re in Nha Trang! And boy are we happy. It’s amazing here, and it’s going to be even more amazing when it clears up. It’s extremely overcast, which sucks, but it’s still wonderful. It’s almost deserted as well, because the weather has been so bad. But […]
Sunday, 4th December, Phuong Tran Hotel, Dalat
Well we’ve finally experienced our first disappointment in a place. After an eight hour bus drive up to the mountains (although we did cop out a little and go in a luxury coach, so we had heaps of leg room), we arrived in Dalat, the city that the Lonely […]
After the creative non-fiction piece, there were a few unassociated observations I wished to make. If you’re still reading, then please, read on.
Thursday 1st December Additions
Even though I was too chicken to crawl through the tunnels, I was one of the first people to drink the funky alcohol. Funky in both seasons of the […]
