That evening we left on our 24 hour bus trip to Hanoi, Vietnam. We weren’t too excited about the long bus ride, but it was actually better than we had anticipated. Eight hours of the trip was actually spent sitting at the border waiting for everyone to get their visas and pass through customs to get into Vietnam. We couldn’t believe how long it took. We were definitely the last people out of all the buses to get our passports stamped. This was probably due to the fact that we were the only Caucasians. When we walked out of the building after getting our passports stamped, the bus and everyone on the bus was gone. We were a little confused, but after walking for a while we finally found everyone and waited another four hours before we actually hit the road again.
