Thought I would write more when I came to Vietnam but I am always very tired now. Travelling is taking its toll on me. Yesterday I went on the worst journey of my life. We took the overnighter from Nha Trang to Hoi An and we had by far the worst seats/beds on the bus. The lower beds at the back so we where literally sleeping 5 people in a coffin. Up Highway One which is NOT in a good state. It was bumpy, hot and there was no air in our coffin. It was a nightmare!! Arrived in Hoi An at 7 in the morning feeling like a zombie, couldn't check in to our hotel so went and had breakfast at Mr Kim's after walking through the morning market. We could finally check in at 11, had some sleep but felt really sick the rest of the day. It's a beautiful little place this town, old Chinese merchants houses and assembly halls from the good old days some 600 years ago. It was also untouched from American bombs. It feels a bit like a museum with souvenir shops and so on but there's a live community here still which is nice. Will be here one more day and we really want to try and go to My Lai, but it doesn't seem possible. Up Highway One to Hue after this.
