One more day in Hoi an

There was a slight change of plans. I have decided to stay one more day in Hoi an. My stomach was still not at 100% and I was not looking forward to the buss trip. Besides with the "tailor craze" I really did not have enough time to enjoy this magical place. Also there is this 7 days festival here now and there is tons of events in the evenings. So yesterday I hanged out on the beach for few hours and later in the evening strolled the old town again and took tons of pictures. I have met a cool gut from Holland (Erik - I have ran into him on few occasions during my stay here) so we had a dinner together in the restaurant by the river. He also made me aware that it is probably better to send things from here since there is 25kg limit on Vitnamese and Thai airlines. Trying to figure out what are my best options for shipping. Leaving this place in 4 hours.

Also this morning I ran into Yannic who has just arrived from Nha trang. I have helped him to find the cheap hotel here.

I have decided to ship the stuff I bought in Hoi an. Will take 3 months but at least I will not have to carry it and perhaps pay excessive luggage charges at the airports.
