The sun is out today and I head for a dander round the old town. So quaint with no shortage of tailor shops looking to catch any business passing by. I stop off in a coffee shop overlooking the river to seek some shade from the sun. What a nice change from my poor weather in Hue. ----- I head to the market, because I'm still looking some shorts. A woman come up to my and is very friendly, asks my name, where I'm from and tells me how handsome I am. Ha. Of cours...

Of course the day that I choose to leave Hue is the day that the sun is shining and everything is great. Awww well. I get checked out of my hotel and go and grab some food for the journey. I head over to the tourist office and wait for my bus. Vin comes along and we get to chat for a while and he recommends a place for me to go in Hoi An if I am looking to get a shirt made. Just need to quote his name and I get some discount apparently. ----- On the bus, not as...

I wake up at 5 still fully clothed. I get changed and crawl in to my bed. I get up about 11. Luckily I don't feel too bad.

Again we have rain, but I still go out anyway. ----- Pick up some water en route to the park that is down by the river. Not really the postcard moment, with all this rain about, bu...

With the breakdown earlier, we don't get to Hue until about 9, which was later than I was expecting.

I have marked down a couple of streets that have hotels on them, so I am just going to dander over and take a look. As I'm sitting there I get approached by a number of peopl...

I am woken to the sound of my phone ringing, it's Hoang. I'm too late to answer, but it is followed by a txt saying that we meet at 10 at the cathedral. This is good because I am clearly still in my bed. Not feeling terribly fresh. Up, shower, then out. It's a scorcher today, this coupled with my dehydration from the night before proves to be a difficult combination. I'm nearly at the cathedral when I get a txt saying that we meet at "less dirty kebab" Well that'...
