After a few hectic days in Ho Chi Minh City, we’ve arrived in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. We caught a 2 hour flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi without any issues. Xander loved sitting near a window so he could look out during takeoff and landing which …
After planning several trips in the past which never happened, we finally got underway with our Vietnam trip! However, as we were travelling with Xander and Eloise, 3 years and 7 months old at the time, there were some restrictions on what we could see and experience without tiring them …
We’re back in Hawaii… and this time we have found the perfect place! To break up a long flight we once again decided to stop for a few days in Hawaii, and this time on the island of Kauai. Our flight from New York to Honolulu went without any problems …
