Now we are in Hanoi. We ate lunch at Little Hanoi. We took a walk around Hoa Kiem Lake, so the group can orient themselves. We got a manco juice at the lake. I bought a new suitcase and tickets water theater, as we shall visit tomorrow at 17.00. Now we can relax at the hotel. We're going to eat snakes tonight. Hang out with. It is the first time for everyone except me. Everyone is excited about it. Hangs friend Minh came to the hotel. He also helped snake eating. Before we ate, we should see a small snake show, where everyone can take pictures. The hose gets cut artery above. There will be collected blood and when we are 6 should be divided into 6 glass and mixed with wine. Then the bile taken out and it should also be distributed in 6 glasses. Finally, take heart out. So the question is: Who will eat the heart. Minh took heart. We were excited about the tongue vibrated. He did great. There was sung very as the snaps were taken. We got schnapps made from bees: It had bee taste. Taxi back to the hotel. Everyone was tired. We said goodbye to Minh Hang, but see them again later.

We need to Sa Pa in the evening, we take the train. But we have only one full day in Hanoi. After breakfast we cycled to Ho Chi Minh mausulæet. The embalmed Ho Chi Minh was in China to freshen up. We could see the park and his home. Although you can not see Ho Chi Minh there were still many humans. The park is always worth a visit: The one-legged pagoda attracts many to. The one-legged pagoda was built 1049 by Emperor Ly Thai Tong. Pagoda looks like a lotus flower and is a thank you for that he had a son. We made a short visit to the Museum of Ho Chi Minh. It is a modern museum. We decided to find the place to get a drink. A new place that I had been recommended by Khoa. A fresh serving young people. Time was advanced, so we cycled back to Camelia 4, which is our hotel. We must check out. We had lunch at Little Hanoi. Knud Erik and I went to the hairdresser. Knud Erik got the big trip: hair, beard and nails got a game. I got a great beard trimming and clipping nails of the feet. Ruth and Tommy went around the streets around the hotel. At 17.00 we went to the show in Vandteatet. It was a new and exciting performance. We had dinner on the rooftop terrace Quan Bia Minh. Back to the hotel and wait for the wizard Khoa and Robert and Diem, who had come from Hoi An. They also help to Sa Pa. Taxi to the railway station. The train was running at 20.30. We were all gathered in our compartment for rum and cola and merry song. As the ROM slid down it became more and more merry song. All slept well just to Lao Cai, where we was at 5.00 in the morning. Again taxi to Sa Pa to Lotus Hotel.
