After traveling 26 hours from Boston to Saigon to Hanoi we arrived at our hotel tired but fine around 10am last night. I did manage to take one photo before showering and heading to bed.
Today we headed to Hanoi’s Old Quarter which begins about 15 minutes from our hotel and contains both historic tunnel homes and other small museums, streets and sidewalks packed with motorcycles and small markets, old temples and street food. We walked along the small Hoag Kiev Lake as we headed to and from the area as well.
Being a bit tired from our journey we managed a half day of exploring before heading back. Dirk was amazed at the narrow streets with buildings practically touching each other. I thought it lucky that we avoided colliding with a motorcycle given the somewhat random way they weave in and out the streets.
