Local Connections

We've been cheating, I'll admit, flying between destinations rather
than traveling by train or bus. On the other hand, there's so much to
see--and eat!--14-hour train rides from Hanoi to Hue, 18-hour trains
from Da Nang to Saigon, etc. just don't work out.

And so we fly in Karen's preferred way: double-prop local planes, in
this case an ATR-72. You can tell from the pic just how thrilled she
is about this.

We did take one bus from Hue to Hoi An--and the scenery was inspiring.
More on that once I get the main camera shots downloaded.
