Where Our Lips Are Sealed: Hanoi 2016 #1.

I'll try my best to write only the main points of what had happened hehehehe.

Day 1
I just cut my hair short a day ago!

#RED

Zoom in :D

6 a.m flight is no joke. Because supposed 3 a.m wake up, but I couldn't sleep hehehe. So whole night no sleep.

I had no idea why I always got the seat where I can see the wing of the plane. Haha.

The sea of clouds and SUNRISE!!!!!

This is our hotel~

FYI, me and my mum followed my dad to work in Hanoi since my finals already over. So as a part-time expatriate, driver is provided and shared among his other colleagues. And in Hanoi, traffic seriously very TERUK, got law/rules macam no law/rules. Can suddenly brake la, or u-turn in the middle of the road la, or slow down to eat ice-cream la. Etc etc. Yeah, no joke. And ah! Communication is a big problem because taxi drivers don't know English and we don't know Vietnamese. Bangkok is better because at least they know basic English. So unless the place can be reached by walking (need to cross the super busy scary roads), we had company drivers to fetch us. But need to make sure that they are really free and not on duty to drive other colleagues for business purpose la. Same goes to those family members who come and visit their husbands.

Dad got to work so me and my mum went to IPH and jalan-jalan the indoor market nearby IPH.

Don't know how to read or pronounce. Hahahaha.

Evening view~

Hotdogs and sausages. Sausages and hotdogs.

Okay la not bad la, not dog meat la.

IPH is a shopping mall, got Burger King, Pizza Hut, KFC~

And yeah! They still have Christmas decorations! Unlike in Malaysia, already take down.

Muacks! :-*

Such a happy family~

Then we went to a place which is nearby the Old Quarters with Dad and his colleagues after they finished their work.

This is the egg onion sticky rice.

Which, I blogged about it on my 5th day of Hanoi first trip in 2014. Would like to eat again just that I didn't think that I got the chance to eat it on my first day of this trip.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! #2014

Unlike the first time we came here, we sat on the highest floor and this is the view.
Yeah the wires are super messy I know.

Then we went for a walk around the same area.

The 3D cards! Very creative and prettie!!

We went to a cafe for err supper. Forgot the cafe name, forgot the beverage name. HAHA.

Day 2
Usually we don't include breakfast when we travel (we are too lazy to wake up so early in the morning HAHA) but this is sponsored ma so we wake up and makan lor. :P

Flatlay also can senget I really cannot do anything straight. *roll eyes*

The weather is getting cold so you can see it's quite misty outside.

After breakfast, me and my mum went to AEON, thanks to the driver who is willing to fetch us. It's quite far from hotel though. Can't believe that there's an AEON in Hanoi OMG. xD

My face when I'm full and just want to go back to sleep. *yawn*

Then in AEON there they started to decorate the outdoor with tou fa so me and my mum spent almost an hour there taking pictures. Ngehehehehe.

*faint*

I think I still want to go to sleep.

Then we gai gai in AEON until my dad finished work and the driver fetched him and other colleagues to gai gai also then only all of us went back. Nothing can compare the AEONs in Malaysia la, especially One-Utama. xD

Day 3
We got our own private mini ground tour as a colleague's sister-in-law, daughter and a helper were already in Hanoi too. So all of us went to explore Hanoi together.

First stop, we went to a big shop that sells delicate utensils. At first they said "clay factory" so I thought it's something big and hot. Turned out is a classy place lol.

Actually cannot take pictures but I took a quick snap. :P

#white

We bought this one (among the cheapest one la hahahaha),
it's a picture of the local St. Joseph's Cathedral.

Then we went to eat Pho (pronounced as 'fur' but different tone). It's noodles la, like Ipoh Hor Fun like that. Beef is the best, chicken one I think I still prefer Ipoh one hahaha.

Their buildings are famous for being tall and slim because last time taxes are expensive so they kinda cut their buildings into half.

There, Hanoi chicken hor fun. ;) Super many green onions. -.-

Banh Mi, not our local Pan Mee. It looks something like Subway, but it has the Chinese Spinach that I hate. *yuck*

Didn't manage to take a pic of the Banh Mi (bread la, to be short) because we passed by after our lunch and all of us still full, so we bought 2 or 3 and just shared around with others.
