Danang Hotel Da Nang

... with the extreme heat & humidity. I don’t know how they did it. I am thankful that we only have a 3 hr tour & then will be back for a shower, water & clean clothes. I know the soldiers did not (& do not) have that luxury.

It's very basic, but it has everything you need, whole place could benefit from a refurb but they just don't have the money. They've done an amazing job with the photo of the pool though, very creative compared to how it really was!

Sarah & family are at the Victoria Resort right on the beach, which is a 40 min walk ...

... and why I’m not quite sure but it was done and id been felt up and measured all over and had chosen material without really giving it much thought. I was reassured though when Nathan got a shirt and Miriam got two shirts made as well. Our plan had been to go to the beach but by the time we got back to the hotel and all that it wasn’t really worth it and so we just parked ourselves by the pool for the afternoon before Miriam and Nathan had to go back for final fittings for the ...

... some because I ask them for help, they can speak French, English, Japanese and Chinese as well.

... they make any adjustments necessary) and then you walk away with your clothes. It's a wicked experience but soooo addictive!

Whilst it was fun to do, we're sending most of the stuff home so won't get to wear it for another 9 months! Boo!

... lit up with recognition. The look in his eyes told me he knew this buyer wasn't going to leave empty handed. He also knew that he would sell the item at the original asking price. He at least did me the favor of amusing me with a little bit haggling all the while subtly indicating he was going to win at this game. *******! I had warned the Aussie it might not work.

... and for 20,000dong each he took us to the beach and drove us around until we found the perfect accommodation, which ended up being a $15 a night room at the "Romance Hotel" not the flashiest, but all the hotels around were all booked up! so busy being the Vietnamese school holidays...we had no idea!
The water was blue as blue with golden sand and beach seats set out all along the beach ...

... dort drei Tage gewand**t, habe eine Nacht in einem sogenanntem Homestay (bedeutet so eine Art Backpack** in einem d** dortigen Do**f**n) und eine Nacht im Hotel geschlafen. Es war auf jeden Fall unglaublich schoen dort und mein** Meinung nach noch mehr zu empfehlen als Halong Bay, was natu**lich was voellig and**es ist.
