Update

• Was very tired on Tuesday and Wednesday, but had a lot of work both days.
• Got lucky on Thursday – my evening class cancelled so I finished work at 13:00 and came home. Had a million things to do, but after sitting down everything else disappeared and I decided just to relax. I watched CNN and a video, made myself a nice dinner and was in bed by 20:00.
• Woke up at 5:00 well rested on Friday and worked til 12:00 and then 16:00 – 18:30. When I got home at 19:00, I felt quite good and realized that I had defeated jet-lag. Apparently al I needed was a good rest.
• My first Saturday at home – a nice relaxing day? Nope. Had a training course 10:00 – 17:00. Went well and I’m now a qualified Cambridge Examiner for the CAE exam (that makes six).
Tomorrow? Rest? Nope. Going to The Tiny Town of B to visit our local blogger up there.

Messed that one up a bit- its episode and of course only three presenters. Very interesting episode! A really excellent way of seeing a country, me thinks

S,

Thanks for that, but I was aware of the video. Actually, I saw it after sightseeing on my second day in Saigon and knew exactly where they were at the beginning, and that day I had also visited the museum they brought their bikes to for first presentation on the show.

Yes, traveling around Asia that way is a great way to see the normally unseen sights.

Also, only JC and JM had ‘mopeds’. The Minsk RH was is classified as a motorbke, I think.
