Hoi An









I think we will all say Hoi An is one of our favourite cities on the trip. It is a small city with old French influenced buildings built along a river- Vietnam's Banff or Jasper. There are lots of tourists here which means the city caters to them- a pleasure after some of the "roughing it" we've done in rural areas or large cities. We've had the best meals in Vietnam here and we've been loving the people. We've done a fair amount of shopping here- getting clothing tailored and finding souvenirs that are of a higher quality than we find at the huge markets. Dennis' sunglasses broke so he bought a pair of Raybans (imitation, no doubt), for less than 100,000 dong ($6 US). The picture of him in his new specs is attached.
