Hi there,
I'd like to add:
The Vietnamese (aka Viet Minh) forced the France to stop its admistration in Indochina. Ironically, Laos and Cambodia didn't fight against the French, but they were granted their independence, while Vietnamese who had fought hard from the beginning to the end, had to accept their country divided into 2.
I enjoy reading your blogs very much. Thanks
Happy travels!

How about you actually take a look at when you are getting ready to go to new places. That would be great!
hello! looks sanitary. I hope your jelly fish stings heal fast! That must not be very fun. Also, I heard your Grandma passed away yesterday. I am very sorry and I hope you will be ok being so far away and getting that news.
Looks like a great trip so far We are enjoying the photos and adventure blog. I know from experience how painful the jelly bites can be. Watch out for the spiny things diving - they hurt too.
Enjoy Life!!! thanks for sharing Eric!!! thanks for sharing. I am so happy that you are having fun living your life in amazing places. Your blog brings a peaceful and beautiful feeling to those of us that are slaves of work :(. I am living the dream through your photos!. Be safe, be happy and enjoy every moment.

You always amaze me Eric! I think my title says it all. I'm so excited for your adventure. I will be vicariously traveling with you. Be safe! Love, Shelly
Spiders Naw, they keep to themselves, mostly high in trees or on power lines. 3 or 4 inches end to end.
And thanks for the fan tip. Thank god you told me, so I don't have to suffer through the next two months wondering. I'll do my best :)
my souvenier gift! I want a pretty red fan. You can buy it at the end of the trip so it doesn't meet an untimely death in your pack. Aren't you glad I solved that one for you? I'm sure you were losing lots of sleep thinking about it! Love the pictures and stories - keep 'em coming!
Spiders on steroids In inches, what is the span of their legs? Certainly challenges my spider phobia. Do they hang out in more traveled places, or keep to themselves?
Great Posts! Eric,
Glad to see you're having an outstanding time in Vietnam.
Love the photos and look forward to reading future posts.
Have fun, be safe.

I really enjoyed your post and photos of Hanoi. I haven't been there yet but I can't wait to go! My blog is looking for travel photos, tips, etc, to share (like maybe how to treat a jellyfish sting!?).
