Blue Ocean Resort Phan Thiet

... finished which was a lot of fun, after we went and saw the fishing village which again was vey beautiful and then headed back, our tour guide was trying to show us the other places but couldnt speak a word of english so we didnt have a clue what it was, we spent the rest of the day by the pool and looked around the town at night. it is a really small town here a little like a holiday resort it was nice to chill ready for the mayhem of saigion!!!

... is all rainforest and to the left are huge corroded rockes and red sand hills.

Currently our plans are to stay here a couple more nights then head to Nha Tran. There I plan to finally get certified to scuba dive. Apparently it's the cheapest place to go in the country, It's been my goal for sometime so I CAN'T WAIT!!

Will upload pictures soon I promise!!

... Uns wurde sogar vietnamesische Volksmusik dargeboten und Matthias hat sich eine Schlange um den Hals haengen lassen. Dann sind wir Mittwoch in den Nationalpark nach Cat Tien gefahren. Da sind wir 2 Tage auf Raedern und zu Fuss durch den Dschungel gelaufen. Tiere haben wir leider keine gesehen, bis auf Blutegel, Spinnen, Echsen und langweilige Voegel. Das Wochenende haben wir dann wieder in Saigon verbracht. Diesmal eher zum Party machen ...

... hour or so, then it petered out and it was very tranquil. The road is pretty flat, good surface, and rice paddies as far as the eye can see for about 30 kms. We picked up our favourite snack, french bread with freshly cooked omelet. We ate it in the local park (they do parks and communal areas very well here) beside a bunch of concrete elephants. I wandered up some steps, being nosy like you do, to discover a huge lake with a lovely promenade all ...

... 30 or at 13:00, so Lisa and I decided for the option that would let us sleep in. We only stayed in Mui Ne for two nights, so we went on the tour during our one full day in Mui Ne, Feb 26th, 2009. The bikes picked us up in front of our hotel on time and one of the motorbikes even had a back rest for the passenger. The first stop on our tour was at a place called Fairy Creek where we were to walk about 800 meters up a shallow creek to see a waterfall. We ...

10th Got the bus from Saigon at 8am, it was supposed to be a regular bus bit we got upgraded to the sleeper bus at no extra cost. The sleeper buses are a bit weird though there are 3 rows of bunk beds. The bus sleeps about 48 people. We arrived at Mui Ne at around 3 ish and we were tired. we hadn't acommodation sorted at that stage because the phone numbers in the lonely planet are wrong for Vietnam, recently an extra digit has been added to ...

Mui Ne is a stunning beach that offers fish sauce and kitesurfing, but not together. Its a large fishing bay and each night you can watch hundreds of boats out in the bay shinning powerful lights into the sea to attract the fish. Some fisherman still choose to paddle out, in my opinion, the most ridiculous sea going craft I've ever seen. A sort of giant walnut shell ...

... steak. Would you like Filet from Argentina, or one of the 2 other options? There were also 3 different types of sashimi. I won't even go into detail about the desserts, fruits, and cheeses. I told Stacy that we were not to consume the "cheap" stuff. No breads, salads, or any other filler. We discussed how the hotel was going to try to fill us up on the cheap items at the pre-dinner event. Smart move since I downed SIX lobsters, 8 prawns, and 3 clams (but ...

... out, that it would be a mass of humanity and activity as 'Tet' is the peak travel time in Vietnam. As it turned out we were the only people in the whole place except for a security guard snoring beside his cigarette pack on his cot in the waiting room. Not to worry though, we had been assured that we could buy tickets to Phan Thiet when the ticket office opened at 6 a.m and we had been further guaranteed that there would be an early train leaving at 6:50 a.m regardless of the ...
