| Banana crepes - oh yeah |
Nha Trang has a long and beautiful stretch of beach with a walkway along the length of it. Yesterday we walked right. We found some supplies at a local minimart, including an exotic Mr Potato flavour that I had to try - fab!

| Mayonnaise and ketchup - yum. |
Then after a bit of exercise, and a lovely lunch back at our hotel, we went to the Louisiane Brewhouse - they make their own beers, and they have a pool as well as beach front space. M had a swim in the sea and we both had fun people-watching.
We met some friends for drinks there and then went out for a fantastic dinner of baked snapper. The restaurant (San Ho Do) was immense and there were about 20+ staff for 10 customers. After the meal we had a strange tour of the kitchens and out the back - where all the fresh (ie alive) livestock was kept - fish, eel, frogs, crabs, guinea fowl, chickens, rats. No wonder that snapper tasted so fresh. But no tortoises, even though they were on the menu.
Found a couple of interesting markets which we might revisit before our departure. Saw some serious cock trading (ie for cock fighting, we presume). Also a Vespa showroom with one in every colour!
After a relaxing rest at the hotel, we wandered out to The Sailing Club for a beer and a coconut (coconut juice served au naturel). We found a great night market and M worked out the stall at the end had some fresh looking calamari - so we had some barbecued squid, then a few prawns. A top spot.
