Okay so after our long wait at the train station, because our train was delayed, we got on our sleep train and made our way to Hanoi. The train ride was a bit bummpy but after reading till 1am i found that i fell strait asleep :) :) We woke up in the morning to all the local kids singing and screaming down the train corridoors, Which to say annoyed everyone in our cabin. We had a nice 2 minute noodle dish for breakfast once we were able to find some hot water and then spent the rest of the trip sleeping, reading and eating snacks to pass the time until we got in at about 4. We then got two mini buses to our hotel, because 13 people with masssive packs take up quite alot of room. We arrived at our hotel, the Especen hotel, after our quick and squishy 10 minute ride. We then chilled in our room with the aircon on full blast and watched Wonder Woman (one of the only things we could find in english) until it was 5:30 where we went out for an early dinner. We had dinner at the Marylin Cafe which was really nice and what we all needed. Some of us then went out  to a coffee place, where myself, sasha and Hannah ordered a hot coffee with condenced milk, needless to say were bouncing off the walls abit.

Back at the hotel and going to try and have an early night, but with the coffee that might not be possilbe for an hour or two, oh well, it was so worth it.

Getting up early for a nice long walk around the lake that were staying near and then for a nice breakfast at the Marylin Cafe with a few of the girls.

Nighty night everyone. Try and write tomorow before the sleep train to Sapa for our long trek. Love you all xoxoxox
