Hello Hanoi


We arrived late into Hanoi for a short trip to Vietnam. I found the city to be very interesting and it was a lot of fun. The first day we went out to Halong Bay, known for the many rocks that jut out of the sea and the caves that exist on some of the islands. The next two days we spent walking around the city and getting a feel for living in Hanoi. Hanoi is a rapidly growing city and trying to modernize the country at the same time. There are a number of positives for the country, but it still has a long way to go. The city is full of motor bikes that fill the streets and are constantly honking as they weave through cars, vendors, and people. There are many areas where people eat some unique foods, but all my meals were very good and cheap. Here are my pictures!
