From Hanoi, Vietnam

Writing this from Hanoi, and it is a great day here. Coming from the Haze filled Singapore, this is welcome relief, and I am amazed at the way things have changed in Hanoi.

I was last here in 2000, and with repeated trips to Ho Chi Minh City, I had imagined Hanoi to be what it was 6 years ago, and my -what a change. It is terrific now, and I have fallen in love with the place. The drive from the Airport (which by itself is very different from earlier), to the Hilton, was great. With a great view of the Opera House next door, it was just the perfect stay, before all the meetings I had to attend to.

Getting ready to move to Ho Chi Minh city later this evening and looking forward to going back to Singapore soon...

Next post hopefully from Saigon :)
