The night bus to Hoi An was for lack of a better word hell on wheels – at least for Ana because Martijn can sleep under any condition. Ana made up her mind from the start that she would not sleep. Martijn thinks this was a mistake from the beginning but Ana gave him a laundry list of why it was impossible to sleep.
1. There was a concert of animation worthy snorers
2. The driver was constantly honking his horn
3 The road was curvy which without the seatbelts we made out of our luggage straps we would have surely fallen out
4 It smelled like feet and fart
5 The air-conditioning vent that was above Ana’s legs dripped ice cold water on her the whole entire time
6 The bus somehow picked up every Vietnamese going to Hoi An along the road and they were all sleeping on the floor
7 It eventually got ice cold (we are given a surely previously used blanket) we even had to put our fleeces on
8 When Ana started to nod off the sun was rising and it was blinding – reminding her why she does not care for the sunrise at all
When we arrived at our hotel at 6:30am life got better – we ate breakfast and they let us check-in at 8am. Ana’s head hit the pillow and she was asleep. Martijn eventually also took a short nap but set the alarm for 2pm so we could have some lunch and head to the beach.
There are no pictures for today because we both wanted to swim in the sea worry free.
We went to dinner at the Cargo Club where we had a delicious meal on the roof terrace and saw a gigantic cockroach. This makes us laugh because this is the fanciest and most expensive restaurant we have been to so far – costing us a whopping $35.
