Some luxury sleeper buses have 2 columns only so the beds are wider like 1.2m. 3 columns budget sleeper buses have narrower beds but if you are exhausted enough, it is easy to fall into sleep straight no matter what bed.

From Hue to Ninh Binh by train means you actually skipped Phong Nha, where the World Heritage listed caves are much bigger, older, longer, deeper & etc.

We wish we had more time to explore more. We will have to go back again to visit new places and all the places we missed.

Great ep guys. Surely you must miss the van and wandering around Australia. Betty and I are still doing it. This is our 4th year. Loving it. Might venture os at some point but not for at least another year or so. Anyways keep up the great work on your videos. Cuddles to all love Paul & Betty xxx

Thanks so much guys, glad you've enjoyed it! I hope you're both doing wonderfully, we think of you both often. So glad you're still adventuring around Aus and loving it. We do miss parts of vanning Aus but are also loving this amazing opportunity we have at the moment. So lovely to hear from you, take care!

My Vietnamese friend told me parking fee is very common, especially for attractions, restaurants & etc. I do not think you are scammed. 10,000VND is cheaper than a can of beer.

@OverlandExposure 3 ай бұрын

It was normal to pay for parking yes, but at the attraction parking space, not at the locals back yard parking he made up, pretending to be official to make money, that was the scam. It is actually talked about a lot online for this particular attraction.

@yesbeautyfly 3 ай бұрын

Hanoi streets, in front of many restaurants, some people collect parking fee even they do NOT own the streets. My Vietnamese friend whose parents work for government told me not to mess those people around because they may behave like Mafia.

Australians should know statistically the fatality rate of motorcyclists is around 30 times (not %) higher than car occupants, even no licence is required in Trang An, it is not worth to risk with your family.

Do you know traffic lights in Vietnam are decorations? Colourblind is no big deal because red, yellow & green are all the same anyway.

A well-known country of almost 100 million people doesn't need to be "explored" and "discovered" just because you're white and on holiday, but pop off, Columbus :D

Not on holidays mate but don't you worry, we will continue to Columbus the world and explore and discover wherever we go, no matter our skin colour, and share it with the world for those that haven't explored or discovered for themselves!
