Personal Learning Journal
This is where I get to journal about my personal life. Things that are happening with my family, my own psyche, dog, trips, etc. I love looking back and being able to read about moments in time. It brings me so much joy and nostalgia and hopefully an inside peek into my life for any casual viewers.
We had an early day today. We were already packed and ready to go so it was a quick clean up and out the room. I headed to the executive lounge to get a quick breakfast in. We only had about 20 minutes. I think I’ve become snooty having access to 5-star hotels with lounge […]
Last day in Hanoi and we head off to Hong Kong tomorrow for the last leg of the trip. I’m still in disbelief that this trip is almost ending but glad that I’ll be heading back and seeing friends and family again. Also, I’m excited to get back to working. I feel refreshed and excited
We head back to Hanoi today. Our cruise was a short 2 night, one day cruise. It’s the perfect length to explore Bai Tu Long without getting tired of the scenery nor the cruise ship. If I was on the boat one more day I’d be over it. We lifted up anchor early morning. I
The days seem to be going by a lot faster. We got up early in the morning to grab breakfast at the executive lounge and then quickly down to the lobby where we got picked up. Our ride over to Halong Bay was going to take a total of 5 hours. We picked up another
Last day in HCMC. Our flight to Hanoi is at 7 pm so we had some time to relax before we left. Our check out time was 4 pm. We’ve been so exhausted going on tours and traveling that we didn’t even bother to go out today. The hotels we’ve been staying at have been
Today is our tour to the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong River. We started out with breakfast at the hotel and were picked up at 7:45 am in a Ford “limo.” It looked dated but it was comfortable except for Jason’s chair. Anytime we hit a bump or his back put pressure against the

Today was another relax day. We grabbed some breakfast at the hotel and then I went to the executive lounge to finish up my blog from yesterday. It’s been a little more challenging getting the blogs out the same day with so much going on. I’ve been pretty tired and I’ve been trying to get

I’m glad that we didn’t plan much for our first day in HCMC. All we have is a night food tour at 6pm. For most of the day, we just relaxed and enjoyed the hotel. The Le Meridien in Saigon is located in District 1, where most of the American travelers tend to stay. District

Today is the day we leave Phuket and head over to Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC). Our flight flies to Bangkok first and we transfer there to head to HCMC. I got some great sleep last night. I’m glad I decided to not work out nor do my daily journal. I was able to get

One day late writing this post because I was drained from yesterday and I wanted to catch up on sleep. We had a full day. It was our James Bond Island tour. We had breakfast at the main restaurant on the resort before we were picked up and driven to the meetup spot to board
