H C M C - day 6 : Monsoon

An hour or so of rain this afternoon resulted in our street being flooded. Was great fun for the kids who were out in force playing in the water. Was less fun for the giant rats and cockroaches who were swimming for their lives toward us in the cafe we were sheltering in. Cafe waiter would have made a great soccer player with the great boot he gave one rat that got too close to us ! Plopped back into the water, and swam in a different direction. Two minutes later there were squeels from the cafe directly opposite us, people standing on chairs etc. Great fun.











Now, at 2.30pm the road is clear again, and killing some time before catching a taxi to the airport. Flying to Da Nang, 30 mins from Hoi An.

Thanks for all the lovely birthday comments everybody. I've only just been able to read them all, since we've only just regained access to the blog.
I most certainly had a wonderful 30th birthday in Hoi An, definitely a memorable one! Great place, atmosphere, food and company :)
