GREETINGS FROM HUE 16/04/09

Home delivery
Mr Lin, motorcycle guide, took us to the DMZ, north of Hue, an area again where you need to stay on the path, due to the volume of unexploded ordnance

Viet cong tombs in the 'De Militarized Zone'

The tomb of Khai Dinh - Nguyen emperor, complete with his armies for the afterlife


The tomb of Minh Mang

Tomb of Tu Duc

Considering how much time we are spending together, there have been very few arguments, however yesterday words were exchanged. Western commented that the style of one of the royal tombs was reminiscent of older european buildings, which Kiss found absurd. "B****cks Ell, you cant tell me thats not rococco"... I think it must have been the heat - architectural styles dont normally get to me.

You two just get better looking with each posting. I do detect an increasing resemblance to Alan Whicker with Ashley's journalistic style if not his Jersey bank account style. Try reading the blogs in a Whickeresque drawl to see if there could be something in this preposterous theory. We need to know as a source tells me that their next itinerary features the Playboy Mansion in Taipei.
