Day twenty. We started the day early to stand up. Khao joined the bus at. 7, we had to May Chau, a walk around. 130 km. As the bus was also Oanh, the deaf girl who we first met in 2001. Furthermore, our hostess in May Chau, Hoa with the bus she had been involved in Hennings birthday and had to be returned along with us. The bus driver is Khaos affinity, his wife's brother. On the way we visited a silk factory, the production, it was exciting to see all the old machines. Again and again was acting a part. There was a perfect air-conditioning in the bus and we had a wonderful trip into the mountainous landscape surrounding May Chau. We arrived around. 13.30 and was met with lunch. After lunch we got to check out bikes and mopeds as Khao drove on with Ingelise. We took a bike ride around the area, visited a school and was back at our guesthouse at No. 1. 17.00 cycles was nothing to write home about but it went fairly. After a beer and a little relaxation and a shower, we had a lovely dinner. Some had a wonderful experience to eat a kind of cockroaches, which I the only one who did not participate in the eating.

As far as I remember was the last to bed around kl. 1, but it is difficult to remember exactly.

Day twenty-one. We got up early had breakfast and started up bikes. The tour went around the area and most important act was to cycle about 10 km up the terrain and visit a school where we had to deliver two brought globes. We had a really good experience at the school. We participated in English teaching, it was really fun and the children were from 12 to 15 enjoyed a great deal of our visit. The trip home was a bit problematic because it was very down and there was no good brakes on bicycles. The decline went well and we were all in good shape for lunch. We had to break at. 15 where we again were on the bikes at a slightly longer trip around the dalområdet. We were well derudad en Khaos moped suddenly point out. He asked for and was told that there was a bicycle threw in the area and close. We drew with bicycles to mopeds, which the smith got a new snake in the rear. The wheel was an ancient serpent who could not withstand the weight of Inge Lises, I think. Replacing the hose and tube price was the formidable sum of 50.000dong which is approx. 17 kr or less than 3 U.S. dollars. That is not to understand that it can be done with the money hose and labor. We got our tour and was back at. 18. We had a shower and made us ready for dinner and the subsequent parade of dancers from the village. We had good food again and then a display of traditional Vietnamese dance as white thai are practicing it. We ended the evening with coffee on the terrace, a cognac and a single beer. It is now 24, we have to sleep on the bus drive back to Hanoi tomorrow morning at. 7.30.
