Uncle Ho

Doug Smith
During our last full day in Hanoi we had a half day tour of the city with two volunteers from the organization hanoikids.

Phu Quoc

Doug Smith
We arrived in Phu Quoc yesterday. Phu Quoc is a small island a bit west of HCMC in southern Vietnam. I wasn’t totally sure of what to expect as some of the comments I had read about the island weren’t totally flattering.

Ho Chi Man City

Doug Smith
We arrived in Ho Chi Man City today to much fanfare. Actually, we arrived to a lot of other stuff - Grady’s tummy is filling up bags all over Vietnam.

Halong Bay

Doug Smith
We just got back from a 2 day trip to Halong Bay and I think it’s safe to say that it was a great success.

Train to Hue

Doug Smith
It’s 4:30am and we have about 3.5hrs left on the train I think. We all managed to get some sleep, or at least I think so.

Golden Sun 2

Doug Smith
We safely arrived in Hanoi yesterday afternoon. The “visa on arrival” scheme at the airport worked smoothly and a car from the hotel that Mercy booked was there to pick us up.

Vietnam, day 0

Doug Smith
So far so good, we’ve managed to make it to the airport in one piece. Grady was touch and go for a bit, he was passing out on the skytrain.
