Coastal Vietnam

Hue, the old, ancient capital is a mixed bag. We enjoyed the best pool here at Dreamers Homestay, that was a highlight. And saw the craziest 'wet' market we've ever seen... complete with meowing kitten in tied up plastic bag hanging from a hook... we talked about it, and I'd like to think its a pet... but.

There's lots to do in this part of Vietnam. We stay in Hue a few nights before going to Denang and Hoi An. Denang was interesting... walking past fish tanks on the street. Is it a restaurant or an aquarium?... probably best not to Google how they prepare the live shark. Might put you off your appetite.

A trip up to the Ba Na Mountains is on the cards as is a journey out to see the ruins at My Son. First time we've seen ancient ruins before and they're amazing.

Hoi An is the treasure here... what a quaint, colourful, tourist place. So full of life. We hired bikes, we walked the streets, shopped and dined out here. I could stay here, just for the happy hour. And at night, it comes alive.

But, we've a flight to catch.
