Well we are here - sorry no piccies as I am writing this on the hotel computer as Dean inadvertantly spilt half his Marguerita on my laptop and I now can't use the keyboard.... I know, I know, what a waste of Marguerita, and the laptop is suffering hugely from a hangover, but we will take it to the doctors when we get home.
The guide who picked us up at the airport was lovely, his English was superb and he made sure we had a map of Hoi An as he left us on our own for a few days. He was very knowledgeable about this part of Vietnam and I wish we could have spent a bit more time with him.
The hotel is truly amazing, a honeymooners paradise. We have a fantastic chalet right on the beach and the staff went overboard on the room decorations (you would be able to see them but.....) We went into Hoi An this morning on the free shuttle bus and we visited one of the many tailors and Dean was measured up for a suit and a jacket. We did a bit of souvenir shopping, but the heat just got the better of us, and we retreated back to the hotel and collapsed by the pool/beach for the rest of the day. There is a slight breeze on the beach and I am sure brings the temperature down to a balmy 39 degrees! We are both now looking very bronzed and are chilling and enjoying the relaxing atmosphere of the Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort, on our 'beach' part of the holiday. After all the sights we have seen it is rather nice to blob on the beach. The hotel is really amazing and if anyone is thinking of visiting Vietnam, then this is a fantastic place.
