The last day(s) – Goodbye Vietnam
Well, this is it. The final post about our adventures in Vietnam…. Last day in Dalat The last day in Dalat was pretty much just about making sure we had all our things packed and gathered. We also needed to pick up the video footage that was taped at the photoshoot and our wedding. [...] -
Day 18 – An uneventful day leads to planning
There was basically nothing exciting about today. I had problems getting enough sleep the night after the Hoais birthday, and i found myself waking up several times during the night. I also noticed that my resting heart rate was quite a bit faster than usual, which kinda made me worried a bit. I think the [...] -
Day 17 – Hoais Birthday and a busted iPhone
Today we were gonna celebrate Hoais birthday, but before that there was a bunch of stuff that we needed to take care of. We ate a quick breakfast then bolted out the door. Our first order of business was to meet with the photographer who took our wedding photos and discuss payments. We arrived at his [...] -
Day 16 – The road back to Dalat
I just wanted to leave this hotel as soon as possible. Before doing so we headed over to Nas brother-in-laws house (phew) to eat some breakfast. We stayed there for a little while before taking a taxi out to a bus stop, where our transportation to Dalat would arrive. It has to be one [...] -
Day 15 – The War Museum and breaking of the fellowship
I wasn’t too excited about this day. My parents and both of my friends were going home today without us. Me and Na are traveling home on the 24th. Last night after we arrived in Ho Chi Minh City we booked some rooms at the DONA Hotel. Not your typical top of the line hotel, but [...] -
Day 14 – Bye bye Vinpearl – Onwards to Ho Chi Minh
Today was the day we said goodbye to the Vinpearl Resort & Spa. The schedule was to eat breakfast, prepare our luggage for the departure and just hang back in the lobby until the bus to the airport in Nah Trang was coming to pick us up, which was supposed to happen at 1600 or [...] -
Day 13 – The vinpearl waterpark and food problems.
Breakfast today was, for lack of better words, total bullshit. There was nothing even remotely interesting at the buffet…so i actually ended up with 3 slices of bread..what a total letdown. The only saving grace was the cheese and butter i consumed in addition. Don’t get me wrong, the selection itself is pretty good and [...] -
Day 12 – Room change and water aerobics
Today they served dumplings at breakfast. I think the last time i ate dumplings was in august 2008 in Tokyo. These dumplings were steamed and had meat in them and they were quite tasty. It’s not something i eat everyday (especially since im strict on carbohydrates) but i allowed myself 2 of them..and they were [...] -
Day 11 – Romantic dinner and more swimming lessons..
If todays description at the buffet breakfast was correct…then i have actually aten crocodile meat! The yellow slices of meat on the right side of the plate: The smaller-than-AA batteries springrolls weren’t bad. I have stopped eating vegetables however, because everytime i eat them i get the shits. I don’t know why, but i take the [...] -
Day 10 – Relaxing at the pool and karaoke
Breakfast at the Orchid restaurant is served from 0600 to 1000, which means we have to get up pretty early if we wanna get some food there. Like i mentioned in my previous post, it’s a buffet style restaurant and i really don’t like it at all. The food itself isnt really the problem, but [...]
