After Jaipur, we travelled back to Delhi by train. After arriving in Delhi, I went to bed. The next morning, I took the amazingly, clear metro over to one of the stations to meet up with a friend from Simcoe. It was good to see a familiar face. We went out for lunch and then she took me back to her place for an hour or so. Then I walked around and saw some of the local shopping area and met another people that had lived in Canada and his family. We experienced a single, poor mother and her baby living on the street. However I found out that she does this every day from one of the local people. At 12:45 am the next day I left Delhi behind with a lot of nightmare problems at the airport. That I will not mention on this website. Let's just say I am so happy to be out of there. I flew from Delhi to Bancock and had an 11 hour stay in the airport. From there I flew to Hanoi, Vietnam. On Tuesday, November 18, 2008, we had a walking tour to Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum which is the place where the president that freed the country for various other countries ruling it. It was a site to see. Everything is very regulated, for example you must walk in single file and be extremely quite and respectful.

Then we went to the muselum based on this freedom fighter.
That night we went to a water puppet show
