We arrived into Nha Trang at 5am after we were woken loudly by the train attendant. I was half asleep when we arrived.
We had to hang out in one hotel room until 9am and were shattered so we all fell asleep like sardines in one bed.
Once we woke up ready for the day to start we went to have a beach party on a secluded beach, it was absolute paradise far from anywhere. On our way there we stopped to pick up fresh clams and mussels. Despite how early it was when we got there we were straight on the beer at 10.30am. We were fed and watered very well all day long in paradise. Followed up by a lot of dozing, swimming and sunbathing. The toilet situation there was very interesting; we had to pee on the floor in a tarpaulin enclosed cubicle, then wash the pee away with a bucket of water.
All the alchohol meant more snoozing when we got back to the hotel, then in the evening we head out for yet more alcohol and food. We eat at a Vietnamese BBQ resaturant which was very nice and you cooked your own food. Followed by a bucket of cocktail at 'Apple Bar', but I am not going to lie, this one very large cocktail finished me off for the day.
The next day we head straight for the beach. I have to say, I really like Nha Trang. It is very much an up and coming holiday resport with already a lot of tourists. I think it will soon be very touristy as there are lots of resorts being built.
The morning on the beach was great, I even went for a little run along the beach. In the afternoon we went to natural mud baths. The whole eight of us in my group fit into one mud bath together. After being in the mud for a while, we sat in the sun to let it dry on our body, then had a mineral bath to wash it off.
The rest of the day was spent waiting for the 2nd night train which departed at 10pm. This one was not as nice as the first one we got. The sheets weren't clean and there were cockroaches. We drank a bottle of Vietnamese wine (Dalat) to get ourselves to sleep.
