Blog 14 City of tailors!! Need hi-tops, a onesie, a coat, a suit...and all to fit like a glove, this is the place. Jo and I decided that we needed a duffel coat each so we treated ourselves. Off in the post they went, see you in 18 months :'( That night we spent a while on a riverside boat drinking 3000 dong 'fresh beer' (6p) with candlelight, the sound of a guitar being plucked and quiet chatter.

Blog 13 Nha Trang was a short 24 hour stop over before heading off to Hoi An the next day on the night bus. It was a surprisingly lovely town.

Safely arrived in Mui Ne regardless though but a little stiff. We stayed...

Blog 10 Been having a few days off the bloghado so the next few will be short but sweet, I hope! Wow, what a whirlwind of motorbikes! Saigon was, I guess, the 1st real fear of death by moto driver! But somehow we have managed to get across each road unscathed each time so far, usually by sticking like lue to a local as they brazenly march across the road.
