18.07.09 Bia Hoi in Hanoi


We spent some time wandering around the old quarter of Hanoi. The street scale is lovely and although it is hectic because of all the motorbikes we enjoyed this city much more than bangkok. During the evenings we enjoyed some bia hoi - the local draught, sitting on childrens plastic stools on the street corner. From here we could observe the moped near misses and be intrigued by what the women had in their selling baskets.

From here we get the night train to lao cai in the mountains - we are pleased to be leaving the cities behind us for the country.
