Hoi An ::: Vietnam

VIETNAM | Wednesday, 17 December 2008 | Views [832]

tailors tailors and more tailors that is what hoi an is all about...well that and good food...

the architecture here is of old french style...beautiful buildings with lanterns hanging from them...makes for some very pretty nights...i did have a skirt and pants made here...real cheap from Ha' my lady boy friend...

i was waiting for maud to get out of the restroom when this little gay boy Ha' came up and started talking to me...when wanted me to see his shop...so when maud finished we walked with him...he was so cute and funny i could not resist...as we were walking he was telling me how all his tailors are gay...i asked if he was knowing the answer and of course he said yes so i told him i was and that was it we were friends and going to be going out that night...that night i picked out a skirt i wanted him to make me...we decided he would meet us at our hotel at 8 to go out...we exchanged number and headed to our hotel...on the way we picked up a few bottles of wine...we sat out on our rooftop drinking wine and having a smoke...it was so sweet as we over looked the city...ha arrived late as in drag as all drag queens do...but she looked amazing...and she had made everything she was wearing...she took us out with some of her friends to a club...it was not that busy so then she took us to her local hangout and that is where we met coco black diamond...hello i am here is what she starts with...then ya know i am famous...i am a buddist but not while i am having sex...she needless to say she and ha had us laughing all night long...we had free drinks free food it was such heart felt fun really being with the locals...no tourist...just us

the next day we went to my son pronounced mi son meaning beautiful mountains...it is a major site in vietnam from the ancient champa kingdom...it dates back to the 4th century and was occupied thru the 13th century...it served as a religious center where champa kings were crownd and buried...in 99 it was named a unesco world heritage site...the champa had a strong indian beliefs so many of the remains you can see the hindu gods in the stones...unfortunately during the american war the us bombed this site leaving only about 20 of the original 70 stuctures intact...you can clearly see the bomb craters next to some of the temples...sad
