Hi, in Hoi An now, another overnight bus down to NahTrang to look forward to tonight where we are hoping to spend a few days on the beach. Spent 2 days in Hue where we visited the Citadel and took a boat trip along the Perfume River to see some temples and mausoleums of 19th century emperors. Then 2 nights here in Hoi An in a very nice hotel with swimming pool. Bargain at $10 a night. Officially have the most mosquito bites i've ever had at one time right now...

The people here are very friendly, especially the Indians who keep asking to make me a suit. I have spent the last 4 days saying 'no thanks' so often I should tape it. If I stopped to speak to these people I would be spending the next year with 20 suits and an arm full o...

No other pictures to choose from for where we are so Great Wall again i'm afraid. Since the last time we wrote we've been to Shanghai and are now in Yangshou with two overnight train journeys inbetween (one of which was 29 hours long - i read a LOT!). In Shanghai we did a lot of walking to see as much as we could on the first day so were absolutely knackered by the evening. Rushed to get to the Jimao (not sure if that's how you spell it) Tower by 5.30 ...
