Day 42 :: Scenes From Hanoi



Day 42 - Hoi An
-----

...On our quiet alley in Hanoi, we fell asleep to a woman screaming. We woke up to a baby wailing. Turns out, her apartment had become a maternity ward...

We recently spent four perfect days in Hanoi, Vietnam's capital city. It's a wonderful place, full of history and loaded with scenery. The Old Quarter actually reminded us of some of our favorite parts of Sydney (except for the giant rats and the billion motorbikes). We've since moved on, but we wanted you to see what we saw.







A few more photos can be seen here.

I love the pictures. Seeing them, I can almost smell the unique perfume of kerosene, garlic, ginseng, and damp vegetation that is my chiefest memory of Asia.
