Hoi An is a beautiful example of old Vietnam. The city has preserved one of the streets as a heritage site. Lined with cafes, tailors for which Hoi An is famous for and craft shops. Amongst the fake t shirts and caps you can find pretty much any garment made from silk. Having to pay to enter the street there are no taxi drivers or street vendors to hassle you, making shopping for once in Vietnam a pleasant experience.
Above: What every house needs - a gong. I was very tempted to bring one home, instead we settled for a wooden Buddha, our house is going to be full of souvenir chintz by the end of the trip.
Then of course it was back to beach
Highlights: Chilled out souvenir shopping

Mum could have done with one of those big gongs to tell us when dinner was ready when we were little!
Sounds like another parcels on its way-shouldnt think our local P.O. has ever had one from Vietmnam.
