Fun and entertaining - Really a super excursion. Each stop was informative and entertaining. Paining with eggshells and learning about the 1000 year old making of the iconic Vietnamese conical hats were my favorites. And the way the colored sticks layer out to dry made for a beautiful backdrop for some cool pictures.
