A Long Day

Yesterday, I saw the tomb of Ho Chi Minh. Ho Chi Minh was the leader of Vietnam. He had a bullet proof car. I went to the Temple of Literature. There were many stone turtles and legend says that if you rub a turtle's head you will have good and be successful in your studies.

I have a story I want to share. A farmer found a sword handle and then he went fishing and caught the blade. When he put them together, they fit perfectly. While he was celebrating, a giant turtle came up and said "that is my sword, may I have it back?" The farmer gave him the sword.

Last night I saw a very advanced water puppet show.

Today we're leaving Hanoi and going Halong Bay. I'll tell you about it soon.

Bye!
