After arriving into Hanoi late last night, we woke up early again to do some exploring. We walked to the Cau Long Bien bridge to observe some foot and scooter traffic. We also discovered that today is apparently some kind of national holiday and everything is closed. We barely got in to see Uncle Ho at the mausoleum before it too closed.
We also walked to see the hanoi hilton. The statistics and video information presented there are a bit different than I recall, but who am I to judge the facts presented to me by a communistical country. Here, even the soldiers walk around smiling and singing.
Tomorrow we head out on a boat into ha long bay. We will be spending the night on cat ba island so our ability to update our blogs is debatable. I hope that all 4 of my readers can survive this lapse in time, but we hope to make up for it when we get into Hue in a few days.
