Vietnam Abroad! Part 1 collection

YOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYO everyone! I am back today with another awesome blog post for you today about our first day traveling Vietnam outside of Saigon. As you might have remembered from my last post, yesterday was my final day in Saigon, Vietnam, and now we are going to be exploring more of Vietnam the backpacker way! Which, might be good, hopefully? Right? Anyways, so that was what we talked about yesterday, so let’s start talking about today and its fascinating experience! First, we woke up at 6:00 am, which is always a bad thing in my book. It’s just so early in the morning and I wake up so tired and grumpy. Anyways, we packed up the remainder of our things and then we left the apartment that was actually quite nice to stay in, to be honest. I just don’t know what was going to happen to us and what room we might stay in next. Also, I like having my own room and I really don’t want to share again. So anyway, we took a cab to the bus station and once we approached the bus, it was completely mind-boggling. The seats were stacked on top of each other and the seats where reclinable!! Literally, you could just lie back on them like the business class on airplanes!!!!! I have a feeling the rest of my family didn’t like it, but I thought it was pretty cool. We then drove 5 hours to the next place we were going to stay at, but I slept most of the way because I didn’t get much sleep the other night. When we arrived, it was drizzling so we got into our new rooms and they were actually very comfortable so we stayed in them and had lunch about an hour later. The food was fine, but they were playing CHRISTMAS songs in the background, in November!! It also drizzled very hard when we were done eating so we had to run back to our rooms in order to gain shelter as quickly as possible. The, we just stayed in our rooms and had a good time until the end of the day. It was very interesting and I hope we see those buses again soon.

YOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYO! Hello everyone! I am back with another blog post written for you today about my second day of traveling Vietnam outside of Saigon and our fun day exploring the small area we were in. Really, today was probably our shortest day in all of Vietnam not just because we slept in, but also because today was really uninteresting for the most part. We only did a few limited things today and was also one of the reasons I hate climate change. So here is my current blog post about a very unexciting but relieving day. So anyways, unlike yesterday, today we woke up at sweet 11:00 am!!! Yes, a day that I finally got to sleep in!!! So anyway, we got to sleep in and we woke up in a really happy mood today because we didn’t have to wake up at 6 like usual. Afterward, we got dressed and explored the area briefly. We mostly passed by old shops and a ton of restaurants that were only selling fish.  We also stopped at a place where we saw the ocean filled with trash and it was really disgusting. Really, people please stop littering the ocean. It’s disgusting and it’s very bad for the environment. Anyways, we walked around a little bit after that and the most unexpected thing happened. We were just walking in the road and out of nowhere, it started to pour!!! Out of nowhere, a gigantic wave of water fell from the sky and got us wet all over the place!! Really, it was so unexpected that it took us off guard and we had to go inside. We stayed in for a while and then went to lunch a little while after that. It was really good actually and then we went back home and stayed there for the rest of the day. We just did homework, watched a movie, and then went to bed satisfied. Today wasn’t like usual, but it was my kind of day as in just sitting down and relaxing.

YOYOYOYOYOYO everyone on the other side of the screen! I am back today with another blog post for you today about my third day traveling Vietnam abroad! Anyways, unlike yesterday, this time we went to another place early in the morning while yesterday we just stayed and had a rest day. So anyway, here is my blog post for you today and I hope you enjoy it! So we started off our day by waking up at 5:30 am… which was a delightful experience for all of us. I do not like waking up early and this was no exception to that rule. It’s just so early and I am so tired and dreary. Anyway, we got packed up, brushed our teeth, and waited for the bus to come like the first day of our Vietnam abroad travels. We waited for about 30 minutes and then the bus arrived. The bus was just a regular old bus and not the cool one we saw a few days ago, so I was pretty disappointed. Anyways, we got on it and drove for 5 straight hours to our next location. We reached our hotel and actually it was one of those classy hotels with the bellhops and the old-fashioned elevators! It was really cool and after unpacking all of our stuff, we toured the city a little bit and we found what was called the “Crazy House”, which was a really big house that was twisted into weird shapes and had weird colors. It was very cool and every room was different and there was not a single straight wall in the whole house. After that, we saw some other markets and when we got home, we took showers, got dressed, and went out to dinner. The dinner place was very cool looking but it was eerie because when we got there, we were the only people there. It was honestly creepy. Anyway, we finished our dinner and 3 more tables were taken up when we left! We went back to the hotel, brushed our teeth, and went to bed. Today was a very interesting day and thank you for reading this.

YOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOYO! Hello everyone, I am back today with another awesome blog post for you about my fourth day of traveling Vietnam abroad. Today was actually a very touristy compared to all the other days, so I hope that you enjoy this today. Anyways, after getting dressed and stuff, we went to a very cool waterfall where we toured and did a very fun walk on it. It was very slippery, but it was ultimately worth it when we went BEHIND the waterfall and saw just how cool it was on the inside!!! We got sprayed though, so that wasn’t very fun and we got our hands dirty from climbing on dirty rocks and mud. It was very cool to see all of our surroundings and afterward, we went to a coffee-making station where we tried coffee! I didn’t like it, it was way too bitter for me and the coffee was made from weasel dung… yech. After that, we drove for a little while and we reached a mini roller coaster station!!! I rode with Ella many times because it was so fun and the course itself was set in the wilderness, so it was very cool. We had lunch afterward and after homework, we had an amazing dinner at a really fancy restaurant. Today was awesome and I really want to do that roller coaster again!

HELLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO everyone! I am back today with another very cool and interesting blog post for you today about another very long bus ride and our first time in a metropolitan city since Cape Town, South Africa! Yes, yesterday was very exciting for me, so let me tell you about it! So anyway, we woke up at 5:30 am again for like the third time, I don’t know I lose track of these things. Afterward, we were in a serious rush to pack up our remaining stuff and then we went downstairs and waited for our bus. It came later and then we got on it and drove off from a pretty decent hotel. It was very cool actually and I loved the classic vibe that it gave us. We drove for 2 hours before stopping at a rest station for 30 minutes and we saw a lot of fish in a pond next to it. There were also a bunch of fake flowers hanging from the roof of the place, so yeah they kind of ruined the effect. We had a small snack break there and when we were getting on our bus, the weirdest thing happened. We were just boarding when the driver of the bus said that everyone needed to go to a bus right next to us and there was this HUGE transition of people! It was crazy, but we eventually got it sorted out and then we drove a few more hours to our next hotel and it was actually like something you might see in a big city! We got there and after resting for a few hours and doing homework, we went to eat dinner at a French place where the owner showed us his wine collection. The place was nice, but I’ve seen better. Anyways, that was my awesome day here in Vietnam! Bye, everyone!

HHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII everyone on the other side of whatever tablet you are reading this off of, I am back today with another very awesome blog post for you today about a relatively fresh day here in Vietnam. It was mostly staying indoors, but a bunch of stuff happened even if some parts of today were bad. So, here is my blog post today and I hope that you enjoy it! We woke up today at the same time as all the other days and after getting dressed and doing the usual brushing teeth and waking up, we went to have crepes for breakfast! They are this very delicious french treat that Ella and I both love very much and we haven’t eaten it in a while. It was very good and it was very refreshing for a long morning. Once we got back to the hotel, we did a lot of homework for the rest of the day, which really sucks because they sprung this big assignment on us at the last minute and it’s killing our freetime. I do not like how the system works because we had no preparation for it and it came out of nowhere. Anyways, we had lunch later at a mediterranean restaurant and the food there was very good. A few hours later, we had dinner and the food there tasted very good. We went to sleep after, so all the homework today basically killed the touring that we were supposed to do. It’s not fair; I will start a revolution!

At the crazy house!
