Up at 4...catch bus at 5..rolls for breakfast (I survive on wheat free oat bar)...1 hour drive to My Sun, ruins of Champa Hindu temples set in a fertile valley...and they are truly amazing. The Champa bricks survived the American bombing in many places and restoration is underway. It looks like a scene from a film set...Hindu temples swallowed up by jungle, only this is for real.
Decide to take boat trip for part of the way back & end up visiting the carving village we visited last time we were here! Great trip though. Have pressed sugar cane drink on the dockside then back to hotel.
We hire a 'bike again and, wierdly, arrive at the beach bike park at the the same time as G & Tom...George on her ancient, rattling Honda. Give the parking attendant 100,000 D notes instead of 10,000 but realise mistake as we walk away..they're not that different! Gives them back after I prise open his wooden box and G goes ballistic at him in Vietnamese...very bad thing and highly unusual apparantly.
We have good fish lunch and then meet up with G & T. Back to hotel, meeting lots of speeding lorries busses and taxis on the wrong side of the road...!!...must be hell for Sue on the back but she's a great passenger.
