after the ha long bay tour we got back to hanoi and hopped on an overnight bus south. we reserved space on the premier sleeper bus. laura and i took another one of these sleeper buses down to mui ne after alicia and nico departed (they wisely flew to saigon and onto pho quoc for some beach time). both bus trips we took were 19 hours long. 19 hours! these are buses from hell. never again.
on our first bus ride, a good portion of the time was spent watching music videos from the 80's... except the music didn't always match the video. when they didn't have the actual video for the music, a segment of a random movie was played in its place. this may have been the only highlight of the bus ride: 3 minute segments of terminator, indiana jones 2, and some ninja movie. thats 9 minutes total. the remaining 1131 minutes were spent in pain.
