Since previous entry in Nha Trang I have cycled three days and reached Mui Ne Beach. It is a very nice beach tourism destination east of Phan Thiet. It means that if You buy a packaged beach holiday to Phan Thiet, You will most propably end up staying somehere on this beach. I am staying in Oceans King resort in a bungalow which costs me 25 $US/night including breakfast. The pool is about 10 meters from my door and sea is about 50 meters away, so I have been swimming several tiimes in both since I arrived here yesterday afternoon. I plan to have holiday here for four nights before continuing towards Ho Chi Minh City, which is only about 200 km from here. I may take a bus from Phan Thiet to HCM as the appoach to the biggest city in Vietnam is not the most entertaining cycling environment.

I have now cycled about 1600 km in Vietnam and 2100 km totally during this tour. After some days in HCM I plan to continue cycling some days in Meking Delta and then take a boat to Cambodia.
