Got up at 9 today and went for breakfast downstairs! There was a power cut all morning but downstairs still works!
Couldn't pack because it was pitch black, our window faces a building a few centimetres away!
So went back to sleep and set my alarm for 11:15 to shower and leave by 12! The power was still out and we have an electric shower! :( 10 minutes later it came back on, so shot up so fast and showered, shaved, packed and was downstairs ready within 30 minutes! A record for me and Annie believe me!
We were told by the manager the bus picked us up at 3, so we planned on going for a walk to get lunch and just waiting, but it actually came at gone 5! Good job we checked!
So we went for a walk around the city, boiling hot in the midday sun! Went to find Annie a new charger in an apple store and looked at buying some of the iPhone cases to bring back with me, they have every single one you can imagine!
We also eent to have a look around a book store but the books were expensive! And who has time to read when you have the whole of south east asia to travel?!
We went and met Orsa the girl who told us about our Vietnam visa from our guesthouse and we went to the cute lady stall for Ice coffee and to grab noodles for the long boring bus journey!
Went at 5:00 to the bigs station at had to wait until 6:40 until they would let us on! They get all the Asians on straight away and then put tourists on last and shoved us right at the back next to the toilet! God knows why?
I slept in the middle next to Orsa and Annie and it got so hot with the engine at the back! We were sat there eating our noodles like there's no tomorrow when I noticed a maggot! An actual, big, fat, greasy, filthy maggot just sat there chilling in my noodles!!! It looked fried so must have been in the lettuce or something?! We were so hungry and annie carried on eating, I figured they'd both been fried in the same wok so I may as well carry on eating without the maggot!
Could you imagine me in England if I found a maggot in my food there would be hell to pay and the whole world would know about it but I'm just so mellow these days :)
The bus finally decided to set off at 8:30!! A grand total of 3 hours later! I'm already preparing to slit my wrists!
