shhhhhh!!! - Blogabond

After another early morning wakeup, Joc, Carl, and I decided that we had had enough. I guess there's only so much street noise (continuous honking), screaming children running up and the down the stairs in the hotel, a neighbor unfortunately coughing up a lung, morning propaganda on the street loudspeakers, and athletic Field comotion from the school outside our room - all of which commenced around 5am each morning and crescendoed as the early morning wore on - that we could take. Honestly, I've come to believe that noise, and lots of it, is par for the course in Vietnam. ;)

Joc and I did an early morning hotel search as Carl continued to nurse his ankle and now a cold that's taken hold. We postponed our mountain biking trip until tomorrow in hopes that Carl will have recovered enough to partake. Four hotel visits later - one was too expensive for what it offered, another full, and another too frustrating (though a good experience!) communication-wise - we've settled in at the Novotel Da Lat. High rollers we're not, but a bit desperate, yes! Hopefully we'll be able to get some rest here as we've requested a room as far away from noise as possible. ;) Wish us luck!
