Just over 24 hours until Obama’s Inauguration.
AND……
Four days from now I’ll be flying up to Kuala Lumpur. I’m flying up Friday night after work so that I can sleep in a bit on Saturday morning before flying to Hanoi, Vietnam.
Sunday morning I’ll be picked up and transported to Halong Bay. I am on a three day, two night junk boat cruise. The excitement is overwhelming. When I first googled Halong Bay, all I had to do was look at a few pictures and I was sold.
After the cruise I am back in Hanoi for two more days. I will be there during Tet, the lunar new year celebration. It is supposed to be an interesting time to visit because everything slows down. Oh so very excited.
This trip will cap off my tour of the Indochina countries (depending on whether you count Myanmar, which I can’t go to anyway). Did I mention I am excited? Ok, sorry.
