Hue we're in Hue!

It's been a few days.

Ryan and I rode our great little dirt bikes to Sa Pa in the hopes of meeting up with Leah and Holly. No such luck though as their trek didn't finish early enough for us to get our bikes to the Lao Cai train station.

But we were able to get on the same sleeper car back to Hanoi so that was fun. We had a day in Hanoi before another sleeper train to Hue so we wandered around, had iced coffee, ice cream and pho bo. Ryan and Holly wanted to look for rings (newly engaged!) so Leah and I hunted for a theater that was showing the Avengers. After walking for 3km we found one and it was AMAZING!

Our night train was very hot so our plans of beer, wine, bread and cheese were foiled when we all passed out early.

At around 8am we got off the train in Hue and just got going. After showering we rented bicycles and rode around town, this was so much fun I want to do it everywhere we go.

Tomorrow we're renting 4 scooters and driving out to see some tunnels in the DMZ area. Hopefully we don't find any land mines.
