I was so sad that it was our last day! This last portion of the journey was short but incredibly beautiful. We saw a portion of the original Ho Chi Minh Trail and a beautiful waterfall.
We stopped at a very traditional village, where the elders didn't even speak modern Vietnamese. There was a little girl who loved me and kept following me round smiling! We also went to a bigger pineapple farm and ate some amazing fresh pineapple with salt, as the locals eat it. We also tried some jackfruit, which is basically a big durian, but it was so vile I couldn't even eat it out of politeness!
Our next stop was a beautiful temple, where we got to see some of the service, which was lovely. We also stopped at a house where a lady was making rice paper, she was so mechanical it was hypnotic!
Our final stop was a cafe which had recently been a wedding and still had all the decorations up! From there it was a short ride to Hoi An. The guys found us a lovely cheap hotel with a swimming pool and then took us to the best tailor in town.We spent ages choosing designs and fabricsm then went to a cafe to say goodbye to Tan and Anh. It was really horrible after five days of being with them almost non-stop.
We spent the evening exploring Hoi An, which is amazing!
