Hue - Day 1

Sunday 13th April

Today was our official day off to do whatever we please in Hue. Some people woke up at 6am to get on a tour to the De-Militarised Zone, others decided to wander around the streets. The majority of people decided to stay back for a sleep in and to complete our first written assignment that is due tomorrow morning.

I was one of these people to stay in the hotel for most of the day. Unfortunately our room is located right next to a large air conditioning unit, which someone decided to turn on at 5 am this morning. This interrupted my day off a bit but it didn't matter, as long as it doesn't turn on in the middle of the night when I don't have a day off.

My morning consisted of finding the best way to watch the crows game. Eventually I decided the only way to do so was to buy an online subscription for a week. None of my devices actually supported the thing that I payed for, but luckily Scott had an IPad that I could borrow that the stream did play on so he saved the day.

Tom, Scott and I went for an early lunch as we had all missed breakfast, but when we reached the restaurant the footy was about to start so I headed back and snacked on some Oreos I had bought the other day.

The Crows won, and the stream worked a treat for the majority of the match so I had a fantastic day!

I got a late lunch with Matt after the footy at a Japanese restaurant around the corner before heading back to do my assignment. Tom, Scott and I sat in our room for the afternoon slowly chipping away at the journal.

At 7 pm the whole uni group met up for a bit of a briefing for the week before a group of us got some tea at an Indian restaurant around the corner.

Tomorrow we start a run of early mornings where we will be spending most days at the Hue University.
