Another early start today. Up at 6.30 to go on a motorbike tour of Hue sites and villages. Was a great tour and great experience, I loved going around on a bike (might have to get one when I get home).
We visited a small village market and rice museum which was actually quite interesting. From there we went to the oldest pagoda in Hue, from there to a colesseum where tigers and elephants were made to fight (the elephant always won add it was the Kings favourite). Then on to Bunker Hill where the French were based during the war. Finally to a nunnery where the nuns had made us lunch which was huge but amazing.
Back to the hotel for 12.30 to make sure we don't miss our night train to Hanoi,14 hours on the train followed by 4.5 hours on a bus to get to Halong Bay ahead.
In your dreams!
ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting day. Motorbike at home might not be as fun though with our roads!
