The perfect pilsner

Well Nha Trang lived up to my expectations, a complete tourist trap.  Not worth going too other then the brewhouse (a god send) and 100! Egg Mudbath.  The four of us girls spent an amazing and most hilarious day in the mud and relaxing mineral pools and showers.  LOL.  We shared our own bath with fresh mud pumped in which was super fun and made our skin extremely soft.  It was a great escape from the heat and all the tourist hustle.  Kim and I capped off the day to a visit to Nha Trang's only brewhouse,  Louisiane Brewhouse, where we were spoilt with a red ale, dark lager, witbier and most delicious, a proper pilsner.  The saving grace of Nha Trang.

After the overwhelming tourist spot of Nha Trang we decided to try the sleepy town of Quy Nhon just up the coast, half way between Nha Trang and Hoi An.  Sleepy is right but escape from foreigners even more on point.  While the girls recovered from our overnight train ride I went on a walk and tried to blend in.  Lots of welcoming smiles and cheap prices!  A most perfect and delicious banh mi was only fifty cents with complimentary tea.  Coffee was a steal.  I could have stayed for weeks (the little pink hotel was ours).  But we are on the move, there's still more to show the girls before they have to fly home.  Hoi An is next... pretty sure we will get stuck there, lots of clothes to be made for the girls.
