A day of ‘culture’
February15
First things first, GO WALES! Even without Shane they can beat the old
enemy, marvellous! (that’s from Jen btw)
We spent today seeing Hanoi’s sights by first visiting the Catholic
cathederal which was very odd to see in the East. Then it was off to
the history museums which had exceptional detail and artifacts from
thousands of years ago but got a little biased (& selectively vague)
in the more recent history!
Below is a photo of the superior Museum of History that covered
pre-1945 events.
Tomorrow is the Ha Long Bay which we are really excited about. We have
also now booked flights to Krabi via Bangkok on the 20th so we should
have loads of time in the south for beaches and diving. Yippee!
Just got back from South Africa (great time), so have just caught up on your blog. Your trip sounds fantastic and you seem to be having lots of fun and great experiences. Really makes us want to go there!
Fabulous result – very strange to find ourselves the only Welsh supporters in the pub.
Hello you two from us 3 / 5! Even Dad watched the rugby and said Wales were “lucky”…
Well done making it to a museum. Was it a musee de Warrr?
We 3 are off to Ikea today while Tim’s at work, the excitement never ends here I tell you.
You should see Mum’s knitting efforts though – amazing! Slug & Lettuce are going to be the snuggliest twins around.
Lots of love
