Hoi an-Nha trang
Well here i am at another shitty vietnam comp with so usb access, i might as well just wait until i get back, hehe. Hoi an was a really cool place, i was going to stay there for only a few days but that soon turned into 5. I went out and partied every night, 4 nights in a row to the same bar. Full moon bar that's about 5-7kms out of town and you gotta hop on the back of someones bike for the ride out and back. It was crazy. The first night i went out with the irish. The second night the irish bailed out very early, wusses, so i headed out with this other crowd 3kiwi girls, another irish guy and a new yorker and a albertan, that we had been talking to in pretty much the only bar in old town. The night after that, when we went for dinner, who do we find at the cafe playing pool but Damian and Barry the irish from Hanoi. So we had to go out again, the whole irish crew was there but it was so interesting to see a brand new group of people there everynight, hehe. Well except for me of course. That was a crazy nights, one of the irish ended up pulling a girl and frank was cloes but at the last minute, didn't remember her name, hehe. It was quite funny to hear that in the morning. The last night i met with the new zealand girls for dinner then i met up with Maria who was in town with her parents for one night so i had to show her out on the town of course. And there was this crazy older aussie guy who was allowed to drive a scooter around this bar, actually in it, hehe. Around the pool table, do a dew laps, would never see that in vancouver. The days were spent sleeping in of course, at least a little bit, then the day would commmence usually around 12 or 1. Went to the same beach as before one more time. Then spent 2 other days on the nicer beach, did some runs, hung out in paridise. One day we took our scooters out to the my son ruins, about 50km out of town. Now the ruins were pretty destroyed by american bombs but it was still cool as they were from the 7th century but i thought the best part was the drive out there. We drove through countryside, on a major highway, i think i'm really starting to like this scooter thing, hehe. Got some suits made during the day and pants too. So very cheap and there on there way home as i'm writing this, well i hope they are at least. Then i caught a night bus to Nha Trang, arriving at 6:30am. Got a room and tried passing out but the kiwi girls wanted to get out and have some breakfast. We were maybe gonna book a ticket on the boat tours they have to the islands but we decided to get breakfast first and think about it. And of course who do we see at the hotel across from ours, waiting for the bus to take them on their boat trip... Damian and Barry. So we jumped on their trip, i think they were still drunk from the night before. They called it a booze cruise, and in a few ways it really was. We drove out to the islands, the first one had some really cool snorkling. The coral was in really good shape, i'm no coral expert but it was all alive at least and there were many fish and such, i can see why the diving here is so popular. The next stop we had lunch on the boat which was amazing. All kinds of foods for us to share in the benches that converted into a large table. The after lunch, what's the plan. Well the crew comes out and plays some songs, we had a guitarist, a drummer with some barrels but a real bass druma dn pretty much the worst looking cymbal i have ever seen. It was hilarious and very entertaining. So what do we do after that, well get some life buoys and set up the floating bar to get some free wine and pinneaple. So we drank all of that, then took over another boats floating bar, drank all of their and our guide even went to a 3rd boat to get a few more bottles. we were quite the posse. After this crazy fest, we stopped at another island were we could lie down and rest a bit from the drinking. Tried to play some volleyball but they wanted $6 just to rent the ball, ridiculous. At the last island, a small fishing village, some people went on these crazy basket rides and the rest of us just did jumps of the boat, couldn't get my back flip down unfortunately. After getting back to the hotel i had to nap, i was exhausted. Went out that night of course though, to this pretty good bar, the Why not? bar, pretty much one of the best bar names i have ever heard. Partyied here for a bit but didn't stay out too late as there wasn't too much going on and damian and the kiwis left quite early. well i'm gonna go hit the beach now but it was good to catch up on this a bit. sorry there are no photos, maybe next time. i'm outro
