Randy’s Travels to Hanoi

Less than a week to go and most of my plans for travel are in place. I have a passport, visa, and flight reservations. I am still trying to figure out where I’ll stay at while in Hanoi but I am leaning towards the Lakeside Hotel. It is more expensive than the other place Dr. Kang Ho Sang recommended but I like the idea of having Internet access in my room. *shrug* I’ll figure that out later.

So far, the hardest thing about pre-planning is trying to read the city maps and try to understand how I will get around the city. I found the convention center and made a waypoint in my GPS. Still, the language barrier, spoken and written, seems daunting. I suppose that many people, especially the younger ones, will speak English so it won’t be too bad.

It should be interesting!
