Jonathan: Rest and chilling. That is all I had on my mind during today’s trip from Hué to Hoi An. It was a short 135km where we passed through the popular Hai Van Pass. It featured on the Top Gear special when they rode through Vietnam, except they put their bikes on a train ;). The pass seemed suffocated and crowded with modernity and traffic of tourists and vehicles with abnormal loads. It was… Meh… Compared to the untouched beauty we witnessed riding through the jungle of Phong Nha. Perhaps I am being too cynical. Maybe I just wanted to plant my arse on the beach in Hoi An.
Denise: I just deleted Jonos post and he had to start all over again! Woops. The ride felt long, but only in the beginning, before I saw the beach!
Denise: Then I was in my happy place! The white beaches and calm sea have a way of just making my heart smile. We went to our home stay and the bed is so comfy, I am very happy about that as the Nha Nghi had very hard pillows.
We decided to go to a spot we have visited before, a very comfortable, chilled spot with affordable food and drinks.
Jonathan: Here are some photos of the beach and us…. On the beach.
Denise: Tomorrow, we wake up without an alarm, so around 06h30. We’ll have breakfast, take a morning walk and swim. Sort the bike’s chain out again and then nap. Yes, nap! And then we go and explore some more of the beach.
