Hoi An is great!
The town is nice and small and the streets are old and full of atmosphere. But what we love the most is our hotel! We could not believe our luck. When our bus arrived in the town we saw a man holding a piece of cardboard with the name Mr DAVID. He brought us via motorbike to the hotel and handed us juice. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. Our room is really beautiful and the food is class, especially the Spring rolls and the Vietnanamese Beef Curry. Chris is contemplataing getting a pedicure because her feet our disgusting but is nervous as she has never had one before and she will only get them dirty again on her next trip.
Hoi An is full of old buildings and character as you can see from the photos. After walking through the manic market we saw the cutest Vietnamese hat for Dougal that we could not resist. When we were sitting out having a drink at the river one Vietnamese woman saw him wearing the hat and thought he was lovely and offered to buy him for her son! But we would never sell wee Dougs even though Dave did think about it!
All our photos are piled together for this one but you can click on
Dougal's Gallery for the rest of them.

30 cent beer! forget the gas pipeline... could we not get a beer pipeline from Vietnam to here?
More great pics. The bloody Irish are everywhere... Paddy Fields! All you need is "Adaccio for Strings" playing in the background to set the mood. Doug looked a cool dude in his hat. Beaches looked great. No sharks in Nam?
