Home and a "Hue"

    Monday, November 16

    As i mentioned the first day of weather in Hue was horrible and led to very little being done, bar a bit of drinking and typhoon weather forecast watching, we basically just chilled out at the hotel.

    I had a few friends coming up the next day in the form of Will who i meet in a drunken session in Hanoi and Sally who came to Ha long bay with me, so decided i`d save myself for a proper a night out with them...and after another rubbish day of weather on the following day the night out couldn`t come soon enough.


    The day after and with a mighty hangover we (with the inclusion of emma who had travelled down with Will from Hanoi) rented bikes and went for a whistle stop tour of Hue`s highlights.
    First stop was the tomb of Tu Duc which was pretty cool, he was probably quite a guy back in the day, having one of the largest tombs i`d yet seen with gardens and lakes, he also had over 147 wives and numerous bits on the side, so he seemed like he lived his life on a pretty grand scale.
