sigh...
How is it that no matter where you are life does not go according to plans?
Our time has been cut short by more than a week; a week that we were going to spend traveling around the country. Unfortunately when our visas were renewed, they only gave us until the 12th. I will finish work on the 1oth, head to Hanoi, then leave the country. I'm so frustrated I could scream. Not only for the limited time, but for the lack of travel we've been able to do. Each time we've planned to go to Ha Long bay, a storm has rolled in, cancelling our plans. Then there's the surprise vacation, mid-week. I will have Tuesday-Thursday off this week, just enough to not really go anywhere. We'll head to the beach and hope for some fun, but I'm fighting a cold and grumpy as all get out.
I was given no warning of the days off, the money lost. And I've got three kids who've seen more of the inside of a dorm building that they've seen of Vietnam. Quite frustrating.
Hopefully on Saturday we will be able to get to Tam Coc, but I'm afraid that Ha Long Bay and Sa Pa will not be seen this time. And my plans for Da Lat are sinking fast. I have obligations to get to Tam Ky and we may just have to do that instead.

Tersa,
I'm so sorry to hear that your time -- and funds! -- have been cut short.
I never made it to Sapa during our trip either. Along with Hoi An and a few other places, it's on a list of "places we missed this time but won't next time." There's a longer list of "Must go back, no matter what"
I hope you are feeling better soon.
That. Stinks.
So sorry to hear about the disappointing turn of events.
OK, I'll stop telling you how much I miss you and wish you would get home already. I hope you get the very most out of your brief time left.
Hurry home!
bummer - I'm really sorry to hear that your trip will be cut short & you won't be able to stay a bit longer & see all the places you guys wanted too :-(
