Hoi Ann, beautiful little Hoi Ann. Where China meets Vietnam, with beautiful little alleys and narrow side streets, cute French inspired buildings and over 200 tailor shops this place really is heaven. We've only been here just over a day but are both already in love with the place (maybe something to do with the cheap tailor made boots I just had made, no?) and I'm sure we'll stay a few more days. There's just something enchanting about this crumbling little fishing town.
Once you'd raided the various tailor shops and are awaiting your goods there's little to do except visit old historical buildings and shophouses, drift along the river in a fishing boat or gorge yourself on cheap local beer (9p) and freshly caught fish. It's no wonder people come here and stay a while, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Glad you are enjoying Hoi Ann, sounds very interesting. Guess time will really start to fly now you have less than 3 weeks to go. Make the most of it I'm sure you will. Is very cold here but no snow. Darlington had another 3 inches last night, which is unusual as it doesn't snow there that often.
