Hanoi. Breakfast in the hotel: Vietnamese noodle soup with pork. Got one of the hotel staff to resolve some problems with my room. Explored the Old Quarter, including Hoan Kiem Lake and The Huc Bridge. Lunch at Cafe 38 Rainbow (37 Hàng Hành). Saw the Water Puppets show. Met Richard's new tour group at Quán Bia Minh. Met Carl, Dominique, Damian (aka Damo), Ray, Ruth, Christina. There were others in the group but I did not meet them. Walked back to the hotel.
