Vietnam 2012. During the this year's Easter Break (April 1st - 13th), we headed to Vietnam. We flew into Ho Chi Minh City, and travelled all the way up the country to Hanoi through a combination of car and overnight train. We stopped of for a memorable night in the UNESCO town of Hoi An, a cruise in Halong Bay, and two wonderful days in the hill tribes of Sapa. We visited all the UNESCO sites in Vietnam with an exception of the Citadel of the Ho Dynasty (for list, go to
