Part 74: Central highlands.... This was the only way to travel Vietnam they say; by motor bike. Taking in the surroundings and the parts that are simply not accessible by bus. To completely immerse your self in the history, escape the crowded cities and feel the wind on your face. From the minute I got on the back of the bike I felt really happy. The knowledgeable guide was filling me with a steady stream of information and facts about the surroundings. Even ...

Part 73: No more busses.... Everything about the Mojzo hostel was pretty much perfect, and to say it was friendly would be stating the obvious. Simple things like being called by your name by all, and I mean all the staff there was a lovely touch. The girls here would fuss over you, like make sure you have inspect repellent on or adequate sun protection. I only wish me and Jack actually listened to them about that though. We both fell asleep on the beach forge...

Part 72: Nha Trang.... I tried my very best to get comfortable on the bus, but quickly realised that no matter how much I moved and wriggled, this was as good as it was going to get for me.

Luckily we would be stopping in Hoi An, which conveniently enough, is only 40km away from Da Nang for a few hours to pick up more passengers - meaning we would get...

Part 71: Marble mountain.... The emergence of Da Nang as a major happening place was clearly evident so far; it really has the feel of a new up and coming destination. For me it offers way more than just a bus change over point, or fly through to the more popular backpackers destination Hoi An, and I'm glad we decided on spending a few days here to see it first hand. Other than just sightseeing, we were busy eating our way around the city, tasting all the regi...

Part 70: The White Buddha.... I'm so easily pleased sometimes. It was the first time I slept in a bunk bed at hostel with curtains all the way round the bed, which seemed to make a big difference for some reason; I had a really good nights rest. The way I see it, you get to appreciate all the simplicity's whilst you are away from home for so long and tend to make the most of the all little things - it goes a long way. We were up in time for freshly made French...
