Bored in Hue

I arrived in Hue today and I'm rather bored. It might be because this is the first time it's been raining and I'm tired from the overnight train, so I am a little grumpy and not in the mood to do anything. I'll get over it.

Halong Bay was very nice. It was billed as "romantic" and I imagine if I were there with a lady friend it would be, but being there with Wayne, I thought it was a very platonic voyage. We spent 1 night/2 days and again, with a woman the 2 night/3 day package might make sense.

At the hostel we met some very young australian girls who were on their way to Thailand for a few weeks of partying. I think they were 20, but acted like 16. They had some funny ideas about Vietnam, and why they were there at all. I think one said she didn't feel right partying for 6 weeks, so she's spending some time in other southeast asian countries before returning to thailand for 3 weeks of partying.

I haven't eaten anything else weird, I'll let you know when I do.
