Nha Trang

Arrived in Nha Trang, one of Vietnam's premier beachtowns, on another overnight bus.

Initially, I'd wish I stayed longer in Hoi An. But one day laying out on the beach changed all of that. The beach here is decent. My second day, I took the infamous Mama Linh's boat trip tour with a fellow traveller I'd met on the bus. The people running the boat were pretty wacky, they even had a live 'band' play after lunch (I think made up of the cook, the captain and the tour guide), using a homemade drum kit made up of plastic tubs. All in all, it was good for laughs and drinks. We checked out Guava, a bar last night and met a couple of girls from Milbrae who claimed to be from San Francisco.

Today, I signed up for a "Try a Dive" scuba trip. It was all in all really enjoyable - especially viewing the sea life up close. I ended up getting really nauseous from something (breakfast on the street? hyperventilation?) and had to sit out the second dive.

Heading to Saigon tomorrow morning.
