During the school October break, Tim, Lisa and Simon traveled to northern Vietnam. They spent a couple of days exploring Hanoi, the capital city of Vietnam. It is a smaller city than Ho Chi Minh and has a different feel. We stayed in the Old Quarter and enjoyed discovering small cafes, restaurants and shops. We took in some of the local attractions and walked a lot.
Of course we couldn't resist the urge to eat at Bún Chả Huong Lien, the restaurant made famous by Obama's visit in 2016. Bún chả is a delicious pork soup and this small, very crowded restaurant truly makes a delicious bowl!!!
