Bat Trang (Pottery Village) Outside Hanoi

We ran into school kids at the Ceramic Village outside Hanoi... The first minute we were walking around a little boy said "Hello" to Jim and he responded with "Hello, how are you?" and the little boy responded "I'm fine, Thank you"... It was one of the most adorable things I've seen. They must do field trips to the village because we saw about 4 different groups of children.

Bat Trang was cool- an easy day because we were late booking tours. I'll be heading to the Perfume Pagoda tomorrow on my first full day trip outside of Hanoi.

Another quick video of my ceramic mug purchase in Bat Trang...

Trip to Vietnam-Temple of Literature- Hanoi

After spending Saturday recovering from Thursday and Friday- Jim and I stepped out Sunday to visit the temple of Literature and see the Old Quarter in Hanoi... here's my first crack at video- I promise to get better...

First impressions of Vietnam- foggy/pollution, traffic and people! My favorite part was when I had Jim pose on the bridge going over Hoan Kiem lake and a cute little vietnamese girl scooted next to him to have her friend take a picture of her with him- loved it!
