Last suit fitting was okay. $120 to post everything via air, hope it makes it! Christmas presents are in there too. Old town had a wee bit of flooding. Caught the bus to Hué okay, after one last meal at Vi. Got chatting to a guy from Liverpool, John. Sitting in the front seat gave me a great view of the scenery, but also of the usual ruthless and relentless overtaking. Also much closer to the driver's horn, which seem to be particularly piercing.
Dozed across the Hai Van pass, green fields laid out below, stretching into the mist. Passed through Da Nang on the coast, with its dirty grey sea. Worrying moment when the driver got out with a spanner, but got to Hué fine. Walked to the hostel with John, bumping into S&N and Lee on the way. Room's a 10 bed dorm, big balcony area outside with a few people chilling. They invite me for a drink - Bobby from Essex, and Katie and Hailey from Scotland. Happy hour leads to pizza which leads to happy hour, and soon we're dancing in Brown Eyes 'til the wee hours.
Not sure what time we get back, smashed my Chinese watch yesterday, about six hours after I posted my Irish one home! Also met a Cork couple - Una and Eamon, and another English couple - Elliot and Naomi.
