For years the two of us have been harboring a dream, to take a year off to travel together with our son, Brook. We're delighted to now be fulfilling that dream. In July 2011 we began the trip of a lifetime, traveling around the world. We are learning from and adventuring amidst other cultures, schooling Brook along the way, and creating fantastic family memories. Please share your comments and questions! - John and Eydie

Happy in Hanoi!

We’ve just arrived in Southeast Asia from India.  Once again we arrived in country without a plan, except this time we knew that we wanted to stay in Hanoi and we had a hotel reservation.  And once again, we are very pleased with our Trip Advisor hotel selection -- friendly, helpful English speaking staff, fast Internet connection, cozy sheets, fresh flowers everywhere and located in an action packed section of the Old Quarter.  Our first impressions of Hanoi are great!

This is the first country in which we are competing with other tourists for hotel rooms and slots on tours.  Being slow to make plans caused us to have to move hotels for one night.  But time is on our side so if we have to spend another day or two in this town because of the hotel changes it is quite all right.
