Matt, Luke and I wandered around Hanoi. We saw the temple of Literature which was basically the first University over 1000 years ago. Then we went to where Ho Chi Min use to live but everything is shut on Mondays. We could have seen his body which sounds very weird- he's been embalmed or something. Others say they think it is a wax work of him. We walked back through some "botanical Gardens" which was a park that they charged tourists to walk through! It had some monkeys and birds i cages. One of the monkeys was very very fat.

At 6.30 we got a minibus to a big bus that finally left at 8pm to head south.
