  • Vietnam Vietnam is doing so much better than Cambodia. Roads were paved, no trash in sight, no sign of prostitution, and children didn’t beg for food. Of course as in any other place in South East Asia, street hawkers won’t leave Posted by Bita in My trips around the world ... | Jul 29, 2009

  • Day 87 - 91 - Dalat - "the Vietnamese Alps" Sunday we were up at 6.50am had cereal & finished packing. The bus picked us up half an hour late.

  • Hoi An to Hue After a great deal of debate, we decided to leave Hoi An today. We didn't want to, but in the interest of not having to rush through the rest of our trip, we opted to go. It is pretty easy Posted by The Cowans in SE Asia 2009 | Jul 26, 2009
  • The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Today I was on the road called Highway 1 at 6am to head to the Vinh Moc tunnels north of the DMZ. The DMZ was no mans land between North Vietnam and South Vietnam. The river Ben Hai Posted by Pixie80 in On the Road Again!!!!!!!!! | Jul 24, 2009
  • No Name I passed a crash site today. A toppled truck carrying tonnes of bricks was on it's side, smashed into tiny pieces scattered on the road. A weeping woman cried over the dead body covered with a blanket. A huge gathering of Posted by CatAttack in Roving Cat | Jul 24, 2009
  • Halong Bay to Hoi An We finally escaped the hectic streets of Hanoi and managed to make it to Halong Bay for a 3-day junk boat cruise. And when I say escape, I mean narrowly escaped. The morning we were supposed to leave for our Posted by The Cowans in SE Asia 2009 | Jul 23, 2009
  • Hue Yesterday after getting dropped back to Hanoi, I met up with Victoria again and we took the overnight bus (15hrs) to Hue. Luckily the seats go right back, which is why it is called a sleeper bus. I Posted by Pixie80 in On the Road Again!!!!!!!!! | Jul 23, 2009
  • Halong Bay Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week have been spent sailing around Halong Bay in northern Vietnam.

  • Nha Trang The trains to Nha Trang were rubbish times, so the most sensible option seemed to be the overnight bus, which would allow us to get a good night's sleep and arrive first thing. We'd booked it through a friendly travel Posted by VicksnTuff in Vicks and Tuffers travelling adventures! | Jul 22, 2009
  • Dresses, fish market and an unexpected visit to Hue Poppy and I loved Hoi An. Favourite place so far, not only because of the amazing tailors everywhere!

  • Hoi An As Hoi An has no train station, the best route is to travel to Da Nang by train, about an hour from Hoi An, then get a bus from there. To split up the travelling, we decide to stay overnight Posted by VicksnTuff in Vicks and Tuffers travelling adventures! | Jul 19, 2009
  • Day 3 So Far In the last entry I talked about how I 'freaking loved' playing real life traffic frogger. I need to post some slight revision to this statement. True, the first couple games were fun. Hell, I'll even give the first ten Posted by The Cowans in SE Asia 2009 | Jul 19, 2009

  • Dragonboats and Imperial hangouts in Hue, Vietnam The enigmatic Perfume River and the imperial Nguyen dynasty bid thee welcome.

  • Day One (So Far) So it's only 1:30 Hanoi time, which I'm pretty sure translates to something like 12:30am WA time. That being said, we took a break from our first morning roaming the streets of Hanoi to come back to the hotel and Posted by The Cowans in SE Asia 2009 | Jul 16, 2009
  • Nha Trang and Hoi An So, we spent 3 days in Nha Trang which was a lot more built up than we thought it was going to be. But we made good use of the mud baths and the hot springs (we got SO freaked Posted by E Bailie in Elizabeth's Big Adventure! | Jul 16, 2009
