If time permits, Thomas and Andrena can wake early to join the local Vietnamese in Tai Chi exercises around Hoan Kiem Lake. After breakfast, Thomas and Andrena will depart the hotel early to cycle to the outskirts of Hanoi on a morning loop ride. Most of the ride will be along the Red River on a dyke path and will give a fascinating introduction into life outside the big capital. They will then return to the hotel to freshen up for lunch. The rest of the afternoon is free, as the bikes will be transferred to the station in preparation for their journey to Hué. Dinner will be early and then Thomas and Andrena will transfer to the station at 6pm for the overnight train to Hué - once the capital of the Nguyen Dynasty of Emperors (from 1802-1945). Travelling by train to Hue will take up the vast majority of their third night.
