Hanoi

It's true what they say, Hanoi is the Paris of Asia...narrow, tree-lined streets, filled with cafes, weathered French-Colonial buildings, and the buzzing sounds of scooters. As expected, the city has changed since Greg was here 5 years ago. The Western influence can be felt throughout the city, with chain stores and technology readily available. The moderate weather this time of you allowed us to stroll the steets and soak up the culture.

Watch how you go...

Temple of Literature...

We were obsessed with the gorgeous bonzai trees...
Delicacies at the market...

Dog Lovers be warned - we were horrified at the sight of this...

  1. Looking at the photos of the market I'm realizing that I haven't heard stories of you guys eating any crazy stuff (NOT dog!). Did you try any bugs or anything? I mean how can you leave asia without eating a grasshopper or something?!
