Saigon

The city left us with many impressions, they all were good. It is a city full of life, energy and "thirsty" people who do things. I fell in love with it's continuos traffic and at least one million scooters. It is a city where I want to go back some day.

Getaway from Saigon

After II days we continued our journey towards North, first city where we slept was Phan Rang. We were probably the only tourists there. People were friendly and you could see the difference in development i.e. to small cities in Cambodia. Business was everywhere, from internet cafes to turntables.

From flatland to mountains and sea

Finally we saw some mountains and sea, the traffic got bit easier 150km after Phan Rang and we got to enjoy real riding for the first time. Hills up and down, blue water, clouds, sun, smoke from the villages, smell of food and cows, burned wheet and corn. So undescribable, we were really happy to arrive in city called Quy Nhon by five pm. Here we are sitting on the beach and enjoying ourselves.

Travelled 2200km

By now we have seen a lot after we started from Bangkok, we have faced many ups and downs, but every minute has been worth it. Bike is doing well, we filled her up with new oil today. Tommorow we continue towards Ha Noi.
