Hoi An

After our day in Hue, we took a 6 hour bus ride south to a quiet little city called Hoi An. In Hanoi, for the bargain price of 48 dollars, we each purchased what's called an open bus ticket to Saigon with four stops along the way-- Hue, Hoi An, Nha-Trang, and Dalat. With an open ticket you...

Hue to Hoi An

The term 'fish wives' apparently comes from the fact that the wives of the fishermen coming back from a catch would fight amongst themselves for the biggest and best fishes. Arguing and angry wives fighting over raw fish didn't seem that enticing, especially at 6 in the morning, but it turned...

Full Moon Festival in Hoi An

We started the day with two excellent coffee shakes. Nice and strong. The weather looked like it had turned in our favour again, so we hired a couple of bicycles (10000 dong each) and headed off to the beach, passing through some lovely agrarian scenes on the way; the countryside never seems...

Arrival in Hoi An

From Hue we got the sleeper bus again, except this time during the day, to Hoi An. Arriving in Hoi An, we were hassled by loads of hotel touts, but we were determined not to reward them with commission for hassling people and trudged around looking for hotels from the Rough Guide. We were...
