I had a bit of a fiasco with my camera in the hotel we stayed at in Hanoi.
To cut a long story short, I'm 99% certain I got scammed by the hotel owner. A very rude, imposing, shouting man. Basically there was a virus set up on the computer, so when I plugged my memory card into it, the virus took over and wiped all my phótos òf the entire trip. I ứa devastated. The owner refused to spologise despite my upset and shouted that it ứ á my ơn fault. For a price he knew a guy that could get it all back for me. Aparently thí guy ứa a long way ây, so we could not go to him; the hotel owner would have to ride therere with my camera and memory card and it would take around three hours.
After much debating we agreed and within 20 minutes the man ứa back in the hotel lobby (we could hear him shouting from our room) and 30 minutes after that he magically had the camera back already (although he hadn't left to pick it back up) and all my photos had re-appeared.
I'm now over cautious about plugging anything into the computers we come across but for now I am using my Blackberry to upload photos onto Flickr to share with pieople. They're nowhere near á good á the ones I have taken with my camera but give you all a little taste ò what I am up to!
So here is the link to have a look
