Hanoi Day 2
This is where my cold really came out and we were up early to go and do some sight seeing. I made getting up and going to KOTO a local version of Jamie Oliver's Fifteen which means Know One Teach One. The place had been set up by an Australian chef about 20 years ago to help street kids and is now very much renowned in Hanoi. The food was great and the buffet spread went from local Vietnamese through Continental breads and cakes to full English. However after the Breakfast we were due to go and see Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum which would have meant walking in silence for about an hour in and out of heavy rain. My cold was now taking a good hold and I didn't fancy making it worse for the flight the next day so I opted out and Hahn had the Driver drop me back at the hotel. I slept through most of the day only waking around 4ish when the laundry man banged on my door despite the Do Not Disturb sign on the door. I felt a lot better now so joined the rest of the group to go out for our last meal at a swanky restaurant in town ( which cost more than we had expected we would need. ) Hanh again produced the confetti bombs – 4 of them this time for the last group photos and then we returned to the hotel to pack.
