Well today is my last morning in Hoi An. I fly to the Vietnam capital of Hanoi in a couple of hours. Although I think this little city is charming, and I've enjoyed my time here, I'm definitely ready for a change of scenery! I'm tired of walking past all of the clothing shops.....NO I DON'T want to order any clothes (that's what you have to say over and over as you walk by). Speaking of clothes - I had to ship a box home yesterday. There was no way I was going to fit it into my luggage. I chose the "sea mail" option over air mail because it was much much cheaper (over $100 cheaper). So that means that I'll see my new clothes in about 3 months! Crazy huh. I did keep a few items...a couple of dresses, my new suit (I need it for work) and the gifts that I have purchased for people. It would be kind of weird to tell friends/family...umm I have a gift for you from Vietnam but it won't be here for a couple more months!
Anyways - I'm looking forward to arriving in Hanoi. Crossing my fingers that the northern location means cooler temperatures. Perhaps less humidity? Doubt it - ugh. Oh - one thing I have heard (from locals) about Hanoi is that they serve interesting street food. Like Lucy on a stick....roasted DOG! NO I won't be trying any...will definitely be sticking to my vegetarian diet while I'm there.
Will keep you all posted!
