Hello children! it is nice to hear from people, sometimes one feels a bit lonely here, so far from home... especially when you are not feeling very healthy! but I am better now, really! The last few days have been full of treats. In Hoi An we had dresses made to fit!!! I had never been to a taylor before, very exciting designing the shape, choosing the material... although I have to say that the end product was not very exciting itself, but it was the fun that I was after. I needed cheering up! There was not much more to do in that small village, a lovely place, but too much temptation! we had to get away before we spent all our savings! you could get shoes and handbags and coats and even jewelry made to order!!!... but we managed to escape and went to the coastal village of Na Trang.
It is supposed to be a beach destination for vietnamese families as well as westerners and I have to say that I was not very impressed... but I still liked it! (I always do, don't I?). It was not pretty but it was lively. There we went for another treat: a mudbath!!! that was sooo goood!!we got a double tub Helen and me, and it was filled with warm grey mud!!it was fantastic to splash in the mud like piggies! I really enjoyed it and I think it was good for my skin too! my injuries are drying very fast! Na Trang was good too because I got my stiches taken out yesterday and then Helen, Ashley (a girl we met in Hue, from Canada) and I went to celebrate and got drunk!! and today we are paying the consequences... tomorrow more about Mui Ne, they are closing!
