Another awesome video brother. Unfortunately, speed bumps are part of life. Too bad about Hanoi and then only to get there to experience the typhoon with us. Gift and I enjoyed traveling with you both! See you in January.

Another wonderful video, I really liked the artwork, photos and seeing all those dishes, and places you two visited. Good idea taking cooking lessons, we all have to eat after all and besides, 'Real men take cooking lessons !' (Just don't tell your buddies :) ) Glad you did get that e-visa in the end. Thanks for the video JR and take care !

I plan to travel to Da Nang later this month. This is great information on the Vietnam visa. It's those small details that bite you.

JR my brother greetings to you. I just wanted to share a similar story. My friend and I were traveling from MNL to Vietnam HCMC back in April. We both applied for the E-visa mine was approved his was denied. So we went to the Vietnam Consulate in MNL he reapplied they approved it in like 2 days but the cost was 4x the amount as it was online. They gave him no explanation why the E-visa was denied. I appreciate your sharing your video of this experience. Hopefully you can get it resolved. Again thanks for sharing and safe travels on your journeys 👍🏾👌🏾!

Massaman curry is how my first proper Thai GF hooked me...(apart from her elegance, beauty and style that is!), still my favorite Thai food.

Those were strong currents, I don't think an average swimmer could fight that for very long ! Did the Mexican place have any enchiladas, or chili rellenos ? I've given up on trying to find pork tamales ! Thanks for the video, too bad about the starving hoard at your nighttime lunch, it could have been relaxing .

Enchiladas yes, no chili rellenos, I haven't seen those outside of US or Mexico. Thanks John

Thanks JR, my take away is to exactly match your passport name on to your visa application, in spite of any improvised rational thought intervention.
