Ah they're cute these embassies. Sitting in hotel in Hanoi after two and a half weeks in Vietnam ready to fly out this afternoon.. Husband had his DTV and I was the hanger on. They stopped asking for documents on Wednesday and I thought I'd better go to the temple yesterday. It worked. As of 5 minutes ago, I have a DTV which hotel has printed out.

What temple did you go to?

I will locate it. It wasn't a famous one. It was hidden in the old quarter amidst the shopping streets. Simple, humble. I followed a Vietnamese couple's directions, lit my incense and said a few words, wandered in the garden and felt ok about whatever went down. And that is rare for me. BUT there were omens...Yesterday the hotel apologised for giving us a very noisy room where I did not sleep (nice hotel) then gave us half price spa treatments and didn't charge us for my husband's mini bar raiding or the taxi to the airport and couldn't do enough. 5 minutes before the taxi arrived, the visa was printed out and they gave me a bag of cookies and a present of tea to take.

No agent. Just did it ourselves using the advice of those who went before us in the past few months. Silly to use an agent. It won't favour you any more than what you can do.
