Hoi An:
The journey to Hoi An was only a few hours and we arrived on Thursday evening. There was no sign of Coops, Jenna, Owen and Ross at Sunflower Hotel where we were supposed to be staying so we walked all the way to Tuesday and Pritch's hostel, realised the others were at Sunflower, walked all the way back there and eventually checked in!
Tuesday and Pritch came over, we had a drink at the bar and then all went for dinner where there were 15 cent beers and amazing pancake things. Lisa didn't come out that night because of her eyes but the rest of us got on the back of motorbikes to take us to the main strip. Ellie was on the back of a mans with Tuesday and Pritch, screaming the whole way. It was an absolutely terrifying experience.
We arrived at Infinity bar which was really good. Some weird annoying chavvy boys who were off there heads tried to talk to us but we gave them the shoulder. We all got buckets and free shishas which seemed to go on forever and everyone was loving it. Coops got in a round of jaeger bombs as usual! Then we all got back on motorbikes and headed to Brown Eyes bar. There was absolutely no one in there to begin with but we didn't care as we were so drunk and loving life. There was no dj, so we could play our own music and the drinks were insanely strong. We played pool and were given more free shisha. By this point we were pros at the shisha and managed to go round all seven of us without losing it. Ellie and Tuesday did a crazy shot at the bar which was set on fire. The boys made friends with Tim the owner of the bar. By now more people were in the bar and everyone was getting very drunk especially Ellie. Ellie, Tuesday, Pritch, Coops and Jenna decided to get back on the motorbikes to go home. But when we got back to the hotel, Ellie and Tuesday asked the motorbike driver for their change and he hit Tuesday! Coops and Pritch went after the guy on bikes and found Tim for the bar who pulled out a mâchétti and said he would kill the guy! Ellie and the girls were waiting back at the hotel worrying about the boys and were relieved when they came back. Lisa was asleep but heard all the commotion and came downstairs. We were all arguing with this guy who was being an idiot but finally all went to bed after a good but very mad night.
The next day we found out that Tim had shut his bar down and had to leave the town so we were all pretty worried about him and didn't really fancy another night out in Hoi An. That day we had the buffet breakfast and sunbathed by the pool for most of the day. We finally sorted out all our flights to get to Bali and back and then after Tuesday and Pritch had left the rest of us, along with Alex from Castaway who had joined us, went for dinner and had a wonder up the town and a game of pool before bed.
We decided to leave on Saturday evening for Natang. After breakfast we checked out and went to one of the shops where you can design your own clothes and shoes and have them custom made! We both had playsuits and shorts made. We sunbathed by the pool and then realised we hadn't actually seen much of the town and so Owen and Ross took us on the back of their scooters and gave us a tour which was scary with all the crazy drivers but really fun. We got lost coming back and had to rush back to the shop to pick up our clothes before the bus came. Ellie's playsuits and shorts were both too big and soshe had to have them sent back to get altered. The bus arrived and was angry we weren't ready. The playsuit came back but the shorts had been forgotten so had to be sent for again! Basically it was all a bit of a mad rush but the bus came to the shop, Ellie got on and we were taken to the next bus which we had to the wait for...annoying. Off we went to Natrang.
