We made it!
After 21 hours of flying and layovers, we finally arrived at our hotel in Hanoi! Our day of travel went very smoothly. We all met at JFK at 10am (some of us a bit earlier at 9am:)) and got ourselves organized for our upcoming adventure. We even rubbed shoulders with Former Mayor Rudy Guiliani at security.
We flew from NY to Seoul which took us 14.5 hours and another 4.5 from Seoul to Hanoi. Ms. Lob read about 500 pages of her book while the rest of us watched a ton of movies. After eating so much food on the plane, we finally arrived at 11pm to meet our tour guide Song. He was waiting for us at the airport with a smile. We know he will take great care of us while we're here.
Today we are heading into the city to see Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum and some pagodas. We can't wait to see Vietnam!

I was glad to read how well your flight went. I hope you all read as much as Ms. Lob did during the flight. Enjoy your trip, learn a lot, write in a diary so that you can share your experiences with all of us at BCSM. Have fun!!!!

I tried sending a comment a few days ago - don't know where it went. Anyway, glad you had a safe, albeit long flight, and all are enjoying and experiencing. May it be unforgettable for all of you.
