Indochina Discovery: Vietnam, Hue

1/10/2011

Got into Hue in the afternoon. The bus ride there was pretty good though. We stopped off at Marble Mountain - lots of stairs up a mountain and caves to go in. Pretty cool.

We also stopped off at another high mountain which was the 'passageway to the clouds' or something! We were so high up it was cold and we were literally in the clouds. They looked like smoke.

After getting to the hotel we went for lunch and most of us dropped some washing off. I ate a huge meal of caramel chicken, 2 veg dishes, rice and soup! Got a bad stomach after that though, had to go back to the hotel!

Literally stayed in the whole night and watched films on Star Movies! 2012 and The back up plan :)

Next day slept in, got up for breakfast at 8:30, went back to bed. Went out at 12 to pick up my washing - 40,000 dong for 1.7kg of laundry!! :)
Went to a bar and watched some kinda Aussie AFL game and came back to the hotel to leave to get our sleeper train.

It left at about 3pm, and I had a little crisis with a disgusting bug near my bed lol. Couldn't kill it so just sprayed it with repellent! Haha let's hope its dead! Train should get into Hanoi at 4am tomorrow!
