Hey! that sounds amazing, sorry I didnt warn you about the sea cucumbers (conveniently I forgot) i think the standard description is 'mildy less appetising than phlem' .

Have a great time in Vietnam, Im looking forward to your next blog :) Emma xxx

wow what a start ...........
May you have many more chinese new years!!!! Good reading Abbie reminds me of my memories of Hong Kong as I also had a whirl wind tour and some very strange food, overcast, humid and rainy weather. I found it hard not to see the sun and lots of grey skies. You will have arrived in Vietnam now and hope you are enjoying space, more colour and something a!!!! Look forward to your next blog. Lots of love Jane
