Sunday, April 21
Check out from Hoi An and Hai Yen Hotel. We had six good days and they were very varied. Now it is Hue. There was traffic problems on Havanpasset, so we drove through the mountain. The other way is much cozier. Now we are inkvarteret in Hue on the River Vieu hotel. It is a good hotel. We have all been satisfactory room. The trick with me. I had room without air conditioning. I'm Not. I've got a new room, but you can not survive without aircon. We are now out to eat the first meal in Hue. Today we visited the Royal Palace. KIUE Anh and Mi became queens. I acted as king. Now waiting for new adventures in the morning with river tour. We bicycles from the hotel at 7.30. It will be back a long exciting day.

Tuesday, April 23
First stop Thien Mu Pagoda, where we were again reminded of the American war. From the pagoda drove a monk in 1963 in his car to Saigon, poured gasoline over himself and burned himself. The car exhibited in the garage near the pagoda. Then to Minh Mang mausoleum built between 1841 and 1843rd Minh Mang was a very powerful king from 1820 to 1841. He had 142 children with a greater number of wives and concubines. Then across the river to Khai Dihn mausolćet.Khai Dinh mausoleum for the penultimate king of Vietnam, reigning from 1916 to 1925. Kieu Anh and Mi was still along for the ride. They were a leisurely bike ride back to Hue. We struck Mi back to Hoi An. The rest of us got ready for the train ride to Hanoi very tired. It was em cozy ride.
