Another lie-in today, this time with a slight hangover! When we eventually left the hotel, we stopped at an internet cafe next door - back to internet cafes now that we don't have the laptop! After catching up with emails and facebook, we headed back to the restaurant where we had breakfast yesterday for some food and drinks. Dave wasn't feeling too great so just had a drink! Then we headed back to the beach and hired some more $1.50 sunloungers. We spent a few ...

Our first full day in Nha Trang...we enjoyed a lie-in and then headed for the beach! We found a restaurant across the (very busy) road from the beach and we stopped there for a big breakfast. Then we spent most of the afternoon on the lovely Nha Trang beach - very clean, lots of space and very comfortable loungers! It was good to be back on a beach again; the last one was the beach on Rabbit Island a couple of weeks ago. I went for a wander along the front and f...

We were up early today as we had to be at the travel agency at 7am to catch our bus.

It turned out that we had a brilliant guide who was very funny and kept us all entertained on the long bus stints throughout the day! On our way out of the city, he told us all about the motorbikes in the city. Apparently in a...

After a good night's sleep and a lie-in, we headed down to reception and booked a tour for tomorrow to see a nearby temple and the tunnels built and used by the Vietnam army during the war. We then went to a few travel agencies to check on prices to get to Nha Trang in a few days - as it's a public holiday coming up all the prices are much higher than usual - great! We managed to book bus tickets though, and were lucky as lots were already full. We stopped at a ...
