We were greeted in H
anoi with two lies and waited for a bus that never would come. The guy who told us just want

ed us to get bored and take the easy way out with the car of his friend, which would take us to his hotel. Then we took a taxi ride with a huge detour. Then we had to find out that it is not possible to get a China visa at the Chinese embassy in the capitol of
Vietnam. So it took us a half a day to arrange a deal with the Vietnam Airlines, who supposedly flew the passports to Saigon and
would bring it back 5 days later. Hanoi itself is motorbikes turf. People lie when they open th

eir mouth. The best way to explore
Hanoi is to do it on your own. There are several interesting spots: an
ancient library, the National History Museum, the Mausoleum of the dude himself and the central lake in the middle. We also had to
hustle with the
tour operators to find a reasonable tour to
Halong Bay, which took another
approximately5 hours. At least there was a
KFC. A German guy even got robbed just after hitting an ATM, which was the first time i heard anything like it in Southeast Asia. And of we went to
Halong Bay.
