And I thought China had a lot of scooters!

We made it to Hanoi...2 trains, 2 buses, and a few interesting moments later, we are here! It is definitely rainy season, misting most of the day which makes it nice and muggy, but we are here and are so excited to be here. We found a good place to stay last night, managed to barter this morning to keep staying here for $2 cheaper and now breakfast included! That means room and breakfast is totaling $10USD a night. Can't beat that.

We have spent most of last night and tonight just wandering around. The area we are staying in is the Old Quarter of Hanoi, so there are a lot of small streets, tons of toy stalls, and a million and a half scooters! I thought China had a lot of scooters, but I had never been to Hanoi!

We will be staying in Hanoi for the next two nights, and then maybe heading north to the villages of the Hmong people in Sapa or south, depends on our budget, we will see.

Hope you are all doing well, and we will definitely be enjoying Hanoi for you!
