Yesterday, Chris and I spent the day walking around Haiphong after checking out of the homestay at 11 AM. We took a stroll along the nearby river. The sidewalk was very wide and had no traffic so it was a pleasure walking by the river.

Chris had to buy some medicine at a pharmacy because of a stomach issue that he’s been having recently, then we had burgers and fried chicken at Lotteria, a fast food chain. The food reminded me of America. After walking on the other side of the river, we chilled at a cafe for a long time, just relaxing. I bought a banh mi sandwich and had it for dinner before we went to the train station to take the 6:40 PM train back to Hanoi. We will be in Hanoi for three days.
