Sunday, September 26
There is pretty run of visitors to Hanoi. It's Sunday. There are only 14 days to 1000 anniversary, so there's a party all over town However, most in the center, where we should. This morning I met several groups from Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. They were all dressed in nationnaldragter. We are 5 from the team who are on tour today. Annelise, Poul Erik, Niels and me. Mona runs with Thuy, who come by motorbike. We must at the ethnic museum. The team took the prettiest road along West Lake. It was a hot ride. Before we saw the museum we would just have filled fluid depots up. It is an incredibly beautiful museum. We have tried to get all ethnic groups. There are approx. 54 ethnic groups in Vietnam. We drove back to downtown. We ate at a restaurant for street children. The whole city is buzzing with entertainment. Annelise and I visited the art museum. Thuy led the others home: Mona and Niels and Poul Erik. We've been to a party at Hoa Kiem Lake. There were many apologies. Here are them who participated: Mona, Niels, Annelise V., Poul Erik, Folmer, Annelise J., Henning, Khoa, Man Minh Chau, Hoa, Thu, Susse, Kieu Anh with Sun at 5 years, Trang also with Sun, Kien ANH mother. We had a festive evening, which took many pictures. We finished in my room with coffee and tea. Tomorrow we go to Halong Bay and Cat Ba.
