Hoi An, Vietnam





Hoi An was a great place to spend 2 days. The riverside town in which its old sector stands, is a UNESCO site and is full of restaurants and tailors. Plenty to do as most of us got clothes made and cycled the 5km to the beach which was a great sight having not seen the coast in so long. I got the silk road material, which I bought in Kashgar, made into a very unique skirt and got 3 pairs of sandals made which is great.

Some of us headed to the Myson Ruins for a morning. The ruins are of red brick temples that were built by Indonesians between the 4-13th century without the use of mortar. It was a nice morning out but ruined by the huge tour group that we were in. Never mind- guess I should be getting used to tourists now!
