Nha Trang

After keeping in contact with two American friends i had met in Cambodia we managed to catch up again in Mui Ne. Rob and Lisa were great value and it was nice to have some company as we headed north to Nha Trang. Julien from Canada also tagged along which was good fun.
All 4 of us joined a half day snorkelling tour (6 hours) around the islands of Nha Trang. The water was a lot cooler than Thailand but there was plenty of sea life and bright coral to see. A windy but fun day was had cruising around the beautiful islands.
Whilst in the party town of Nha Trang we celebrated St Patricks day with a quick beer at the overcrowded and tiny Irish bar before heading to a beachside bar for some potent buckets of vodka and orange. A biggish night followed with a rather sluggish start to the next day. Instead of chosing to go to the inviting Vin Pearl water park we opted for the relaxing mud bath centre. All 4 of us piled into this tiny bath which was followed by a natural spring shower and a very warm swim in the pool. A brutal 1 hour massage was the finishing touch to cure the hangover before we headed back to Nha Trang for a quick dinner before our overnight bus north.
We managed to get the very back row of the bus for our overnight trip to Hoi An. The first few hours were fun and the rest was quite bumpy and uncomfortable as the bus driver honked his horn on a 2 second average. Ahhhhhhhhhhh! So annoying. Finally at around 6am we had arrived in Hoi An!
