Woke up at 7 am and headed downstairs to start venturing out and get our bearings. We decided to get a quick meal at the hotel, so we got pho of course :) We had a list of places we wanted to see, so we started walking only to find that walking in Hanoi is not as easy as it looks. There is no street signals, people are everywhere and there is tons of motor vehicles trying to run you over. Just crossing the street, which we had to do about 40 times today was like playing a game of frogger, move a few steps forward a step to the right, 2 steps back and then 4 steps forward again. So today we got a chance to see Ho Chi Minh's house, mausoleum, museum, place where a B-52 was shot down, Vietnam's 1st university, taste some street food, and a few other touristy sites.
