Hoi An

The next leg of the journey Hue to Hoi An was very straight forward.An air conditioned bus picked us up from our hotel at 8.00am and at 1.30 pm we were deposited at the Hoi An bus station.The drive was through beautiful countryside with mountains on one side and the sea on the other through a 6.5 km tunnel to Darnang with some anazing bridges.We sat next to a Vietnamese biologist who gave us a very interesting running commentary.
We were surprised to find Hoi An very busy and all hotel tarrifs double and many hotels booked out.After quite a bit of leg work we found a very nice hotel with a swimming pool at a reasonable price so booked 4nights.
We were told that Hoi An was at the start of a four day annual festival.We were so lucky to be able to be a part of it.
