last evening in hanoi

a benefit of traveling alone is that you can do what you want when you want to - so i chose to attend the water puppetry for the second time...don't know why, but i love puppet shows.

an added bonus to my trip to hanoi is that i was able to meet up with my good friends, arrin and ela katz! it just so turned out that our traveling paths happened to overlap in hanoi so we met up for dinner. having spent so much time in china, arrin and ela helped me out with some chinese phrases - most important being "i dont eat meat" and "that is too expensive" - we shall see how far that gets me through the country.

i am leaving tomorrow by bus for nanning, china and then onwards to beijing (not exactly sure how i plan to get there...) - so stay tuned!
