It was recommended that we hire a car for this leg of the trip because of the scenery. We are headed down the coast but there is a mountain pass along the way. A couple was doing wedding photos from a platform. Considering the position of the platform and the strong wind this did not seem wise. The bride did not seem to be very impressed.
Our driver stopped at a couple of tourist sales centres - in our case to use the washrooms which are usually very good at these places. One interesting stop was a one of many "stone" shops.
Another interesting stop was Water Mountain. There is an elevator which takes you up about five floors. There are caves, pagodas and shrines at various locations around the mountain.
On our way we could see the beach. The waves were quite strong and it did not seem that anyone was in the water.
Our hotel is the Little Hoi An and the building demonstrates the French influence. We have a 3rd floor room overlooking the river.
The old town is a UNESCO heritage sight. We had a quick walk through and will explore more in the next few days.

Everywhere you go there is beer. So I wonder what humans would drink if there wasn't any beer... They would probably invent it!
