Hoi An

The trip to Hoi An was quite eventful, the coach had a little break down, I think a belt broke or something. Luckily we broke down out side a random ice cream parlor so that was great, I think the ice cream parlor had their best business day ever! Hoi An was really beautiful, tailor shops everywhere so I was very excited. We rode mopeds and bicycles to China Beach a couple of days, so nice to finally hit a beach and relax – time to get some tanning action on!

 

We met a lady who helped us find our hotel when we arrived etc and surprise surprise she owned a tailor shop (as did everyone else in the town). She took us out for lunch and then we felt kind of obliged to get some clothes made at her shop – only we didn’t expect to buy as much as we did, an hour and $160 later we end up with getting a suit, 2 shirts, a dress and a skirt made – awesome! All the clothes were really nice too; Ben looks amazing in his new suit. We spent the rest of the time wondering around the old town, really picturesque little place, I can see why it’s so popular.

Ben & I went on a little moped excursion again to some temples called My Son about 60km away from town, the ride was really fun and the temples were great, we were told they were a mini Angkor Wat though so now we can’t wait for the real deal!
