Got home at 0500hrs and slept in for our bus to Mui Ne.Sean woke us at 0745 and after an argument with Susan who was adament that it was only 0700hrs persuaded us that his watch was in perfect working order and told us to get our stinkin asses out of bed.Luckily the bus had not yet left Nha Trang so they came back for us.Susan and Ross parked up on the back seats and fell asleep, then 2 minutes down the road we were dropped at the actual bus that would be takinn us so they had to get up and sit like normal people on the way down the coast.The journey took 6 hrs and should only have been 4 but the Vietnamese insist on stopping 100 times at all there mates cafes, houses and s***holes along the way.We booked into a crappy hotel and the boys had an evil panda sporting a light bulb out it's ass on the wall.We went for a BBQ for dinner and then off to the Pogo bar with Ross and Sean.We put our laundry in and were told it would be returned the following day.We only had a few cocktails then went to bed.Just as the lights went out Laney heard heavy breathing and asked Susan if she was ok and why was she being so noisy.Susan said it wasn't her and they started freaking out.Tough as F**k Laney tucked her toes inside her blanket and told the Bald to turn the lights on.After about an hour of searching and trying to decide whether to waken the boys to let us crash in their room, we opted to share a bed and pretend it was just the aircon makin the noise and not the evil panda from the boys room

We hired a jeep today from a guy who assured us it was brand new.As we waited for him to drop it off we heard a tank thundering thru town and presumed it must be the army or summit.No No of course not, it was our bleedin transport for the afternoon. We decided to let the boys drive and took off down the road with the wind blowing thru our hair. First stop was the giant sand dunes where you hire a plastic board and throw yourself down at top speed.Sean went first and got about 2 feet down the dunes before he got stuck in a build up of sand.Legs crossed with laughter it was Laneys turn and she made it quite sharply to the bottom and in one piece.After walkin to the top again we decided one more time was enough and went for a swim in the lake at the bottom and played with the ball we had purchased in Nha Trang.A small girl had taken us up to the dunes and played with us in the lake.As we were walkin back she made s some cute rings out of grass and flowers, she was too sweet so we gave her some cash and told her to get oot our sight!!We drove the joeep around looking for a nice beach but as is everywhere in this world, all the nice beaches are owned by some fancy resort.We ended up going thru some tiny villages (if you can call them that) and all the kids came screaming out of their school classes to wave at us and shout hello - felt like minor celebrities for a whole 2 seconds.Gave them a wave and rumbled by in our tank.On the way back we stopped off at Fairy Stream and walked all the way up it thru the water to a waterfall at the top.returned the hunk of junk at 1730 and got showered and had pizza for dinner.Asked about our laundry and the girl said it had been raining all day so it wasn't dry yet.We told her if it rains to take the frikin clothes in and dry them there.After taking a shower Susan realised that although the wind had kept us cool all day the sun can still burn your skin.this is something you learn at a very young age and with her peely wally skin she was totally fried.We had 2 bottles of voddy during drinking games and got well smahsed!Went for a dance at the pogo bar and got home late AGAIN!

Wasted day and slept till 1pm then went for the most disgusting burger know to mankind and down to the beach.Only thing is there is no beach so we sat in a square foot of sand with tins of raid being swept up by the sea.Checked on our laundry but again she said it was not dry so we told her it had to be done by the follwinig day as we were leaving but she just said i don't know maybe 10 o clock.We went for grub later then back to the Pogo for some more drinks.After a couple of cocktails everyone was undecided whether to get drunk or not so Susan was on the rounds.She came back to the table with 4 cocktails, a bottle of red wine and a vodka bucket.Guess we were gettin smashed yet agin!Got home about 3am.
