The former is Vietnam wonder. Tourists who come to Vietnam are bound to take cruises. In kayak and scale cliffs. Haiphong is the biggest port in the north of Vietnam. They are as wonderful as I heard they are.

Purchasing in Hanoi's story starts here. Once upon a time, the renowned 36 streets of the Old Quarter were each dedicated to one solution, whether silk or ceramic or hemp and so forth. Sellers - many competitions - vied for company, each selling variants on exactly the design. Though the names of the streets remain the same, and many of the original products are sold on those streets, the days' uniformity is over. This warren of activity buzzes with business and is a must-stop on any trip to Hanoi.

Today, Capt. Quan is a veteran of 24 years sailing on halong bay cruise and is looking forward to 24 more. If the past is prologue, then he has much to look forward to. The stunning sunsets, which seem the same. The beauty, along with the beautiful waterways, also, of people that are local, earning a livelihood from the sea, the way his mother did.

We stop to sip a Singapore Sling in the Long Bar of Raffles Hotel where rooms start at $700 per night. Tours included Jurong Bird Park and the Night Safari in the zoo, considered the very best in the world for 2500 animals with its roaming cages. We take over the cable car to Sentosa Island and ride rickshaws.

We then went on the compulsory (but very rewarding ) trip to halong bay luxury cruise with its many tiny peaks. We spent a night on a boat there (with a whole lot of Australians, the hottest invadors to Vietnam). That night was a football game (first of two matches) between Vietnam and Thailand,  [[https://esperanto-france.org/spip.php?page=recherche&page=recherche&recherche=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.asklink.org%2Fhalong-bay-quality-cruises_311559.html&action=|S-disco]] the fantastic rivalry of Southwest Asia. Surprisingly, Vietnam won, which meant the ship crew was ecstatic, and with it being Xmas eve, they began pouring free drinks (accompanied by dried squid in the bay). While we're in Saigon the second half of the football story occurs. While kayaking in the bay, Anhai and I found that kayaking is a team game, and we've got some work to do on this front.

The trip was uneventful, and that's how we enjoy it for the weather, which was by turns foggy, gorgeous and drizzly. Had Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie cruised our boat, I'm not sure it would have been business as usual, and you can bet I wouldn't be blogging about that here. But politicians are another issue. These Senators were on an official trip, en route to evaluate the changes occurring there.
