8 Days Hanoi, Halong Bay & Sapa Tour - D8

The hotel normally start serving breakfast at 6.30am, as we need to leave for airport at 6.15am, they advanced the time of serving breakfast to 5.45am for us.

It’s still early after we checked-in at the airport; four of us stroll around the retail stalls for a while, and then walk leisurely when it’s close to the boarding time. Unexpectedly, we were declined at the gate and were told that we had wrongly approached the domestic boarding gate.

At the same time, we heard an announcement related to the flight number which we were going to board. We had no choice but quickly ran from one end to the other end where the international boarding gate was; luckily we finally board the plane without hitch.

After arriving Changi Airport, we took the shutter bus from Budget Terminal to Terminal 2, and then took the skytrain to Terminal 3 for our late lunch. Two of us had not been to Terminal 3 before, so we said this is the scenic we are going to visit today.

To look back at this trip, it was a wonderful holiday despite the early departure timing and the cold weather at Sapa. The two minor blemishes are we not being able to stroll round the Hoan Kiem Lake, and had not had a chance to try some food which I had been looking forward to savor.

These may become the reason of my re-visiting Hanoi.
