Today we roamed the streets and markets of Hoi An searching for souvenirs. The markets were very busy and the streets were quaint with a French influence. We visited a Chinese Assembly hall and a Japanese Covered Bridge. It was very hot today and we were constantly seeking shelter in aircon shops.

We spent the afternoon lazing by the pool in our hotel and also went to the look out tower at the top of the building (very scary but great views!). We had an early dinner at the same restaurant as the last night and managed to say goodbye to the Canadian couple and Australian duo before boarding our coach to Nha Trang.

The coach left at 6pm due to arrive at 6am. Driving again was unpredictable making it hard to sleep. The aircon was also tempremental occasionaly blowing hot air! We went through a 6km tunnel just before entering Nha Trang which was a little eerie but eventually managed to get a few hours sleep!
