Ho Chi Minh City, Cu Chi tunnels, the Cham Museum, Marble Mountain and China Beach en route the delightful fishing town of Hoi An, exploring its narrow streets filled with historic buildings, tailors and inviting restaurants, historic Hue for its splendid tombs, ornate pagodas and the remains of a once magnificent Imperial Citadel, overnight cruise on the scenic Halong Bay also known as the Jewel of the Bay, dotted with thousands of limestone islands and hidden grottos, Hanoi’s Old Quarter, the Temple of Literature, the History Museum and Ngoc Son temple oh I can barely contain my excitement, a few weeks from now, we’re headed to Vietnam for two weeks.
My left arm is a tad sore from the travel vaccination yesterday but I can barely wait for this trip!! Going overseas every alternate month is not a bad idea after all, what do you reckon? 
On that note, if you have been to Vietnam before please do leave your suggestions.

My trip to Ho Chi Minh and the Mekong delta in Vietnam in 2003 was rushed (only a couple of days) and I was very much focused on Cambodia at the time where I was living. However here are some impressions from a diary entry about the trip over to Vietnam:

Thanks Ruth, I remember reading your journal sometime back. It would be fun reading it again! Thanks for point it out.

I’m getting very excited as well. The history, the people, the food (and the excellent coffee that Ruth mentioned) all sound amazing.
