John and I decided to take the three day trek to climb Mount Fansipan

 

You walk right through the clouds

 

Some beautiful mountain scenery

 

There are low land sections with lovely old forest that you have to cross to reach the mountain (i.e. you climb some other ridges before you even get to the mountain!)

First sweat

 

They were a little shy!

 

Met at the Hanoi Hilton, where we went to watch rugby giants, Canada (vs Scotland) and minnow England take on the mighty Georgia. $1US a beer! At the Hilton!

 

We played human 'paper, rock, scissors and won a free rugby top!

Not the free hat, free top he's wearing... we did get our moneys worth!

 

We spotted the gym!

 

So John did the only kind, drunken thing and offered them a sip of his beer!

 

All the 20 nation flags were there... and we were drunk...

 

...'God Save.... Man we got pissed in the Hilton! The fecking Hilton!
