Got up at 5:00pm! Still so tired too! All the sleep in the world couldn't refresh me after some of our nights out!
Felt so crap But forgot that we had arranged to meet Zorro at 7:00pm! So off for breakfast/tea we went, usual restaurant, usual seat, usual order! No time for being fussy!
Bree and Rehana had actually woken up today and gone sightseeing! God knows how they did it!
After eating it was dark again! The sun was nice for the 30 minutes that i saw it today.. :/ We went to get ready and then met Zoro and we went for a tour around the city!! :D This place looks amazing at night, the city comes to life, there's lots of epic high rise buildings and hotels and lots of grand architecture, French influenced streets... Really could live here...
Half of the tour I was more of Zorro's guide, I told HIM what the Notre Dame was, showed him the City Hall and pointed out the Palace! So funny that he's lived here for years and not even seen any of the main sights! See, we've seen more than him in less than a week!
Met the guys from last night for coffee at Highlands cafe (a different one to the other day) and sat with them a while before going for a Vietnamese desert! I was so excited to find out what it was!...
We had fruit salad/smoothie/fresh juice/concoctions! It was so odd! Basically a load of fruit like, Durian (I think it's local fruit?) Pineapple, Berries, apples, Lychee's and cherries in a Raspberry juice, almost gelatine drink! How wired! Wish i knew the name if it has one, but had to drive for miles to find it! And we had a flavoured tapioca/jelly, set inside a coconut, soaked in black coffee...? Yeah, I know... THE strangest food I have tasted so far but definitely one of the tastiest and I love the fact it's something that's so 'Vietnamese' and not anything I've ever heard of before, or maybe it's just me? Also the fact that it all came up to like less than £2!!
I didn't appreciate however, the cockroach the size of Africa that scurried along my foot! Seriously, I think I like attract them or something! I was nearly having palpitations and trying to keep from Running into the middle of the street screaming, whilst Zorro just laughed as if it's a perfectly normal little bug? Not phased at all! I think this is the one (and only) thing about Asia I will not miss! Even though the cockroaches from Cambodia, Tyra and Din were our friends... I do miss those guys! :D
We got back to our street for 11:00pm and met the girls again to go to 61!! We had few drinks at the stall, after the first drink I was feeling much better again!! :D it was really busy for a Sunday... still, we party like rock stars anyday of week!
And even more drunken antics just like last night only this time we kept the party going all night and ended up going to Go2 bar after 61 closed.... This club is a lot more travellers kind of hang out and at one point there was 10 black guys circling us, getting low down and trying to grind on the girls! Maybe because Bree knows like every single lyric to the R'n'B raps!! I'm gonna miss these girls! We also met Van Xuan randomly who was left out by his friends partying alone!! So he stuck with us :) Annie and Rehana went home but me and Bree stayed out with Van Xuan and partied for all of 30 minutes before the club got a bit boring!
We went to eat noodle soup from a stall that could've been anywhere in Asia... A beggar from the street came asking for money which you don't really get too often here, but I bought her a meal instead... No way am I going to give her cash so she can blow it all on booze or drugs or whatever else but if it's food she wants, well then poor girls gotta eat :)
Watched the sun rise as we ate too, it's been so long since I saw it last :) then we decided to go get iced coffee on the way home Bree decided after I'd paid and the drink was made that she didn't drink coffee, then Van didn't want his so I casually sat there drinking 3 full iced coffees at 7:00am whilst them two are stroking rabbid puppy dogs in the street! Crazy night!
