Vietnam 2
Friday, February 12th, 2010After all the rushing around of China been busy here doing nothing. In fact don’t know where the time has gone !. Unusually in my experience the weather had been very warm for this time of year – I was told there is a 4 year cycle – which has been good as time to chill out on the beach.
Tomorrow is new year TET so now everyone getting ready for that with their orange trees used in a similar way to our Christmas trees and the usual decorations. The downside is that a lot of people leave for the provinces so quiet here. Did a nightout in Haiphong on Thursday, always a enjoyable place to spend time as not a tourist place so easy going and with its French colonial architecture and coffee shops and street life very enjoyable. Made even better by the girls being very easy on the eyes and beer even easier on the wallet, 10 beers for a pound ! Admittedly in the disco after prices 25x that but the discos are not bad and will be going back tonight.
Then Tuesday fly to Thailand and then U.K.
