Tourane Hotel Da Nang

... with the extreme heat &amp; humidity. I don&#8217;t know how they did it. I am thankful that we only have a 3 hr tour &amp; then will be back for a shower, water &amp; clean clothes. I know the soldiers did not (&amp; do not) have that luxury. <br><br>According to our guide, we are in the winter months &amp; when the temperature goes all the way down to 20C the people here don their hats, scarves &amp; heavy jackets. In June, July &amp; August, the temperature ...

... We made mango salad, Rice paper (from scratch!! oh yes), Vietnamese pancakes.. which I'm sure many of you will have forced upon you when we return, they we soo nice! eggplant in clay pot thing and then made a rose out of tomatoe skin and a fan out of a cucumber. Very useful.<br>We had it all for lunch and it tasted good! <br><br>That afternoon we bought an old town ticket, which lets you into various sites. Wasn't that good really and we sacked it off after seeing some ...

... went on for a few nights. A couple of women working here were away in Ho Chi Minh City when the typhoon was on and one of them, Lyn, was at drinks this week. However, Cheryl had got spooked by the typhoon and has now gone back to Australia. We have talked to people about how scared they were and think we might have been lucky to have been out of town when it all happened.<br><br>We had hoped to have a special dinner for Sue and Russell&#8217;s final night and thought River ...

... we were attacked by sellers &amp; after escaping their clutches we went &amp; explored some US &amp; French bunkers from the war.<br><br> <br>Driving home we went through Danang which is 3rd or 4th largest city in Vietnam &amp; on a bay &amp; a beach. which had some small surf. The ...

... now that we've spent the money seems expensive ... but to get clothes which actually fit properly and are well made (according to our guide this was one of the best tailors in the town) I'm thinking its worth it.<br>I guess we'll see when we pick them up tomorrow!<br>We met up for dinner and drinks with Glenn's mum and ended up with the rest of our tour group at the Beach Bar ... they run free shuttles from the town to the club about 4kms away on the beach and they pack ...

... some because I ask them for help, they can speak French, English, Japanese and Chinese as well. <br>The food here is amazing and sound cheap. However, the service also very poor, they did not care about client, you should not mention it before you choose.<br>Hope that information will help you<br>

... br><br>After our tour of My Son which took about 2 hours, we then headed to the river for the cruise part of our tour which involved a floating lunch of rice and tasty veg as we travelled back down the river to a small village opposite Hoi An where much of the wood carving and lacquer associated with Vietnam is made. Although it really was a badly disguised excuse to shepherd you around from workshop to workshop in the hopes that you'd buy something, it really ...

Well, I'm writing to say what up! And tell ya about some funny things that have happened. We had our friend Shawn Stevens visit us this week from South Korea. He's up there teaching kindergardeners at a very prestigeious school near Sol. Its been great to have him though just because having another person here mixes up the dynamics of the house and it feels good to have a different perspective on things as well as being ...

... auf einmal mehr Geld haben und das Kaffee, das ich mir zum Fruehstuecken ausgesucht habe war auch nicht mehr da. Toll** Tag. Bin dann umh**geirrt und muss sagen, dass die Roll**fahr** hi** schon wied** sehr unangenehm aufdringlich sind. Nachdem es die Reiseagentur auch nicht mehr zu geben scheint, hatte ich g**ade beschlossen mich im Hotelzimm** unt** mein** Bettdecke zu v**stecken, als auf einmal, wie aus dem Nichts mein gutes altes Sinh Cafe ...
