I think today was the highlight of the trip so far!!
After a rather bad night ( I got slightly sick after drinking some bad water!), myself and the ozzy couple from yesterday rented out the 'easyriders' for the day to tour the local area. The 'easyriders' are quite famous in Dalat, and made up of a group of men of varying ages wearing blue jackets who drive tourists around the local area on the back of their bikes. It's all very safe, and rather fun! Infact, I can see how motorbiking is addictive, it certainly gets the blood pumping when your steaming around the corners and high speed with the wind in your face! Although luckily, my driver wasnt too speedy :)
During the day we visited various parts of the surrounding area including a temple, some waterfalls, a silk farm, and a flower farm.
Dalat is simply stunning - very green, lush and gorgeous to see after the madness in Saigon. It's also the hub for vegetable growing, so every other field was either growing pak choi or cucumber!! Due to it's climate, the quality of the veg is next to none, and renowned in the south!!
