That makes two of us.
Blimey. I just walked smack bang into a motorcyclist about five mins ago. Well - she drove into me, is more accurate - I was just walking along a road in a straight line, looking down a driveway, and she came zipping off the road straight into my path... gave me a bit of a fright!
Quentin did the same in Hanoi, only this time it was us in the wrong... it's just sooo hard to cross those roads, with ten people on bikes coming in each direction at a time, and also they drive on the right hand side which didn't come naturally to us as pedestrians either.
We arrived in Nha Trang this morning after a 12 hour bus ride, and are about to go and hit the beach - it's beeeautiful. Only thing is it looks like there are about three hawkers to each tourist, and you have to say "no thanks" five times on average to each hawker - and even then they'll just park themselves next to your towel for the next five mins, saying nothing but watching you in the hope you'll change your mind. Not quite the relaxation I had hoped for today!
