From Saigon we caught the bus to Mui Ne – Just! We almost missed it as we were a bit late back from the tunnels trip, the girl from the travel agents went after the bus with us on the back of her moped! Complete with bags- it’s amazing what goes on the back of a moped- we’ve seen 4 dead pigs, baskets of chickens, and the highest count is a whole family of 5 people: dad driving 3 kids in the middle and mum at the back!
The first night we stayed in a grotty place which we immediately left in the morning after finding mouse poo on the bathroom floor- eeuuurgh!
Best meal yet.
The beach at Mui Ne after the stormy weather
We found a nice place after that and I spent the first afternoon on the beach (Tim watched the Grand Prix) but the next day the weather was colder and overcast and the beach was a mess. There was debris everywhere probably the after effects of the hurricane just off the coast at the moment. As we were walking along the beach we saw a dead rat that had been washed up- it didn't have any hair left! Then 10M down there was a dead piglet! You can see the logs in the sea in the picture, they were whole tree trunks. We decided not to go in the sea that day!
We had our best meal yet at a little place by the seafront, the pot is a barbeque and we cooked our own meat and seafood, delicious!I am also sporting my new maxi dress bought in Saigon :0) The market is Saigon was scary- the women on the stalls grab your arms and pull you into their stalls then barricade you in. Tim did some really good haggling which the girls get really grumpy with! Because he is so stubborn he's a great haggler, those Saigon women didn't know what had hit them!
Beach at Nha Trang - Not sunbathing weather!
We caught the night bus up to Nha Trang which is where we are now. The weather is awful though it has rained lots and it's really windy. It is beautiful though.
LOVE you maxi-dress burd..... MUCh better than the tammy girl one ;-) xxx
