One of my return flights went up $20 in price today at random. Unenthused. Good thing I found that twenty in the pocket of my spring jacket I left there last autumn. (not)
On a less irritating note, hello and welcome to the very first post to the new travel blog of Milly and Mihai (or Emily and Michael/Phil, as you may know us) :) Eagerly awaiting my Sept. 8 departure from Vancouver, and current resident of Nanaimo, BC, is me: Milly. Decision-making is afoot, as I wait and wonder when the VIUFA labour dispute at VIU will cease. Finish off the semester, or take the refund and begin working full time more timely? $$$. If the flight I have my eye on goes up any higher, you know which side of the continuum I'll be swinging towards.
Did anyone else notice the odd spelling of 'continuum' just now? Apparently it's correct...
Anyway, I'm relieved I snagged that flight to Hanoi, Vietnam, our first stop, on the cheap. This city, which National Geographic Traveler has dubbed, the "heart of the country's ancient culture", seems, upon skimming through guide books and travel blogs, to be a delightful destination.
Sculpted pagodas, leftover French colonial architecture and plenty of city parks in which to practice Tai Chi. What more could two bunk offs from Occidentia need from the first week of holidays?
That's right. Vietnamese Coffee.
Vietnam, i think we r gonna b BFFs.
