Travel Days: Hoa Lo Prison- Vietnam

February 6, 2013

Going going gone! Guess who finally got sick on her trip?!?

Yep! So sick right now laying in my bunk bed whining and wishing I wasn’t while K sits under me icing her ankle because she apparently can’t walk down the steps she told me to be careful of.

We’re a mess and we have a boat tour to Ha Long Bay tomorrow!!

Eeerps!!

On the bright side before I got sick and she got clumsy we went to see the Hoa Lo Prison. It was something high on my list to see and I’m glad I did. It’s been very interesting to see the Vietnamese point of view on the war having only really read & learned the American side to it all. It was a sad to see the conditions they lived in and read about so many people dying.

We then explored the city and got some Vietnamese beers( which may or may not have been the cause of my suffering).

Still considered a pretty good day exploring on our own.
