You would not belive what has just happened to me. I was readong on the bed in bra and knickers by the fan to cool off when a huge humungous black beetle dropped from£ the roof right next to my face because I was in a state of shock I ran into the bathroom which is outside. After a minut I needed a wee when I was having a wee a great big frog jumped at me. Viki would just love it here. I bet the children laugh but it was a big shock ha ha

Been out around old town CRAZY! Ten million scooters all driving all over they place. Totally unorganised. If you want to cross the road you just have to hold your breath and walk and hope they all stop….no guarantee!, we also succumbed to a rickshaw man. He was not big and was fascinated by Dave’s size we had a ricks haw each because we didn’t want the man to die of a heart attach. He rode us all around the town calling out to people that he had such a big man in his ricks haw everyone was clapping and cheering. My man didn’t dare!,, along the road there are chairs where you can sit and have a shave or haircut randomly along the pavement. It’s really mad! Oh bye the way we are millionaires ha ha there are 30,000 Vietnamese dong to the British pound so we changed up enough to get 1 million dong. Everything is very cheap and there are loads of imitation bags etc but I don’t know enough about what the real thing looks like to choose well. Out tomorrow on a tour xxxxx

Why don’t you children Google Hanoi to see photos of where we are Look up the old town and the French quarter. You could follow us on our holiday. In a couple of days we go to halon bay for a criuse in a very old boat called a junk. Oh and we have seen paddi fields where they grow rice in flooded fields. We saw ladies planting and weeding. They wear conicle shaped hats to keep of the sun. There are millions of motor scooters all honking their horns and driving all over the road. Some motorcycles carry the whole family mum dad sister brother and baby and then all the shopping or a pig or chickens in a cage. You can see on google. It’s amazing. Xxxxxxx n & g xxx

Hiya
We have finally arrived. The aeroplane we flew to Singapore in was three stories high and very new and posh. We had four seats to stretch out on There were lots of really good films to see so we watched eight altogether. They even had Spider-man and frozen! We were on that plane for 14 hours and then we were at Singapore airport for an hour before the next smaller plane took us to Hanoi vietnam. Vietnam is very old but interesting the people are quite poor There are food stalls in the streets with people cooking things for passers by( not us!) it is a bit dirty but so different from home it’s very interesting. I will send photos tomorrow. Our hotel is the only 4 star hotel and modern building and is really lovely. When we arrived after 24 hours we were sooooo tired we went to sleep for 5 hours but now we are going to have a walk around and look at the night market then have dinner. Tomorrow we are going on a trip with our driver and guide li(lee) and my (me) who are very nice and speak perfect English We are very excited to be here and can’t wait to see everything. Hope you are all ok. Lots of live nanny and gra
