Margriet & Lex – Travel Pics – Page 3 – Vietnam, New-Zealand & Australia

Rotorua & the Bay of Plenty

Apart from the roadkill and rock formations, we have also made some shrewd observations concerning the social demographics of the tourist population. We’ve been here for nearly ten days, so we know what we are talking about.

Gorgeous coves and coveous gorges

And don’t forget about the hobbits.

Remember when we were in Vietnam?

Margriet made a video!

Northland roadkill

Getting to know Tony did not take us very long. We know his soft spots, his weaknesses and the cheapest places to get his fuel. In return he gets us to some of the prettiest locations on this planet; It’s a pretty sweet deal.

“Is de intocht al geweest?”

Ah yes, Sinterklaas is who we thought of while we roamed the streets of Auckland where a 15 meter tall Santa statue had just been erected.

Last call – Ho Chi Minh City

Or as the train conductor who yelled us wake, called it: “SAIGON, SAIGON, SAIGON, SAIGON, SAIGON!!”

Привет Nha Trang!

I know. We don’t speak Russian either.

No Lex, my suitcase is not too small

Or so I thought.

Kicking it into Top Gear

The video below pretty much summarizes our attempt at recreating a small part of what is apparently one of the most famous Top Gear Episodes ever. (So famous I had never seen it until Lex made me watch the full 1,5 hours in our hotel in Hue)

Soms zit het mee en soms zit het regen

Taking the DMZ bus all the Hue!

This morning we left our cosy farmstay at 07:30 with the so called Demilitarized Zone bus to get to the town pronounced as Hway (enter ‘Aha’-moment for subtitle)
