VIETNAM | Sunday, 9 April 2006 | Views [250]

This is a coastal resort. I have spotted a few westerners but we are very rare here. Some of the locals and other holiday makers will smile and say hello and little children stare at me. I was on the back of a motor bike taxi yesterday when a couple on a motorbike drew up alongside up and they said hello, but they were trying to sell me the woman rather than just being friendly. I found that rather strange.

Yesterday evening I went to a small restaurant in which the menu was written only in Vietnamese. The waiter told me he could translate and I ordered a pork stew, I received fried frog's legs. It was very nice actually.
