Another end to the day
Well I think shopping is finished well I hope anyway. Relaxing day today hired motorbikes this morning rode to Cui Da Bech which is about 5km from Hoi An itself spent the morning out the front of the same little cafe' as yesterday Tin Tac which is literally on the beach, great clear water, us and about ten others on the beach.

Halfway back to Hoi An stopped at a little riverside restuarant again it was superb, just to keep you envious.

Adam : Seafood soup followed by Satay Squid.
Jane : Rice dish ? and Grilled prawns.
Emma: Seafood Soup and Steamed vegetable spring rolls.
Sam: Cheese sandwich with french fries (do you believe that)
Couple of beers couple soft drinks Cost: $ 210,000 Dong about $17 dollars Australian, beat that Hastings Street.

Have finally picked up all the clothes that had been ordered & adjustments made, we have now filled the mother of all suitcases, hoping that there are not to many more purchases. Jane and Sam have hired pushbikes this afternoon to pick up a couple of last things, One thing Jane was after a painting for the house there are so many beautiful art

Swimming, From our junk
galleries it was hard to chose but we both and the kids have found one that we all like, so Jane and Sam are of on pushbikes to pick it up this arvo.

One thing about Hoi An is that the central art, clothes district is motorised vehicle free so it makes a change from the thousands of motorbikes scotting past. Last night got some good footage of the local fish market, some of the boats were just bringing in there catch. Everything tends to be so fresh here, you see deliveries of vegatables all day at the restuarants and the fish and crabs you can see in holding tanks at quiet a number of the restaurants.

Will attempt again to get a few photos on the blog some of the internet cafe's are better than others, (mind you this one has a sign in front of me cold beer 8,000 dong abot .60cents australian). So if you dont see any photos at least the beers cheap. The photos could be of earlier in the trip Ha Long Bay.Hey guys if you read this we really love the replies, regards The TICKS
