The Hanoi Youth Football League starts next week. There has been some “blood-and-guts” training, a pre-season tournament in 40+ degrees and to cap it off the players and parents of Gold Star Hanoi – South are spending the weekend at a glorious resort appropriately enough part owned by Luis Figo.
What a place this is. We are being pampered and are having a super time. The views are incredible, the food delicious. We had a little adventure on the way over the lake to get here, with the boat’s engine overheating and us drifting offshore for a short while, before transferring to another boat.
Only one more day here, before we go back to “the harsh reality of Hanoi”.
The children were taken fishing, and taught a lesson: They caught nothing :p
The place is stylish yet understated
Idyllic
Your trusty photographer finding the angles…
Spoilt? Moi?
Then a storm brewed…
and then it hit…
