...this is how we've rolled since arriving in this picturesque fishing-cum-tourist town on the coast of central Vietnam. We settled into the resort, very nice, but like most 'classy' resorts - once within the perimeter - the country's idendity gets diluted, & you could be anywhere in the world with a nice beach, pool, & selection of restaurants; not a complaint - but it encourages us to venture out whenever possible, & so we have. Firstly surfing at China beach, where the GI's had their downtime during the war, & Robert Duvall enjoyed his am sniff of napalm. This has unfortunately resulted in some patchwork of heavy sunburn on us both, which is somewhat restrictive to activities - so morning tai chi, reading, watching knock off dvd's, buying vietnamese tat is what we're currently reduced to..& great fun it is too! Hoi an is renowned for its beauty, & its food..there are worse places to be in February..
