Nha Trang








We decided that we could not cope with another overnight on the bus so we caught a flight from Hoi An to Nha Trang, a cop-out we know but it had to be done; 45 mins Vs 12 hours.


Nha Trang is Vietnams beach resort, where not only do the Vietnamese go to party, but so do lots of Russians.

We headed for a special place just outside of town where you could have a natural mineral mud bath and hydrotherapy, which is what the lush green photos were of. If you enlarge the 3rd photo you'll see the little bath tubs, which once in; they fill with hot mud. You soak for 20 mins covering your face and hair in mud, get out and sunbathe to dry the mud, then shower all the mud off - easier than it sounds as the mud gets everywhere!
The next day we kept telling ourselves that our skin and hair felt much better, although Andrew's hair never grew back!
The last photo is of the sunrise at 05.00a.m. which we got up to see and then caught the bus to our next destination.

Hi Shivani and Andrew

Enjoying watching your travels. The photos are amazing and you are visiting some beautiful places. Making me quite jealous. Sorry to hear about Andrews hair. Maybe it wasn't the right type of mud!
I'll post again soon.
