My Last Full Day in Hanoi
Tuesday was my last full day in Hanoi, yet I still wasn’t that interested in seeing the sights or dealing with any more taxi drivers. Believe it or not, after breakfast, I spent a few hours back in my room! Which reminds me, I’d like to comment on the breakfast at Art Boutique Hotel. There … Continue reading
Back to Hectic Hanoi
Leaving Hoi An on Sunday morning made me a bit sad. I’d gotten used to the slow pace and relative quietness of the little town. Three Kiwis were sharing a driver with me to the Da Nang Airport. Of course, we struck up a conversation en route to the airport. They were actually on their … Continue reading
Back It Up – Photo-Wise
Since I was too damned lazy to download photos to my iPad Mini during my trip, here’s a little photo filler until my next word-worthy post.
The Entertainment Center, Ha Long Bay and Yum Yum

It took me approximately an hour and 10 … Continue reading

That will be more appropriate for tomorrow, but I’m not planning to do any posting then! In reality, my clothes are packed. I’m simply debating on whether to take a long dress, another pair of pants and 2 more tops. The forecast is for at least 3 days of rain during my 7 in Hoi … Continue reading
Checking Things Off
There are 3, actually 4, more trips for me coming up before the end of the year. The upcoming one next week will be Santa Fe, the longest one will be Vietnam, the one I’m most excited about is Hawaii and then there’s that little jaunt to Las Vegas just because. Santa Fe is, for … Continue reading
Trial and Error Travel
There’s a bit of a lull before my next trip. It’s not even the end of June and I’ll be “stationary” in San Francisco until mid-August. On August 16th, I’ll fly to Albuquerque, New Mexico, then take a shuttle to Santa Fe to be there the weekend of Indian Market. A couple of people had … Continue reading
