Nha Trang is pretty unremarkable. The beach isn't as great of course as I thought it wouldn't be, but it was intersting to note that there appeared to be way more locals relaxing than foreigners. A kind of nice change. As unremarkable as the town was, I'm grateful we stopped there. It was a good way to help break up the long journey up North - imagine traveling 24 hrs pretty much straight to our next desired location...yea I think not.
Hoi An is a pretty great cute little quiet town. Lots of stores, cafes, and restaurants all along the river. And yes I ate to my little heart's content. The Cao Lau noodles are amazing - it's good in the restaurants, but even better in those little street vendors with the small tables and chairs. Seeing Jenny sit there with her legs above the table..heheheh. Ohhh and I was able to try this dessert our vendor had, which truth be told if I saw it I wouldn't have eaten it because it kind of looks like gruel, but the taste - hard to describe, but the closest would be sweet corn tapioca. By the way, this city actually is one of the few cities that survived the American war, and with it's beautiful French architecture and color pallete, it is a UNESCO site. Seeing a kind of pattern? I'm trying to visit as many UNESCO sites as I can. :)
