Day 47 9/12/2009
I got up early today to meet the others joining me on the boat tour at the hostel. They were just ordering breakfast when the bus arrived to take us to the port. I managed to get the driver to wait for them although he wasn’t happy about it.
We were taken to 4 islands around Nha Trang on this tour and the boat was filled with asian couples and families which was a little disappointing as I hoped there would be more people our age although it still was a good laugh. The tour included snorkeling around a coral reef which was amazing, swimming, a karaoke session (yay!), lunch and fruit and an aquarium. For $5 it was well worth the money especially because I managed to eat well more than my fair share in lunch as everyone wondered where I put it all.
The aquarium was a little disappointing as we had to pay to get in and to see all the animals in tiny tanks not looking healthy at all.
We arrived back at the hotel and went for drinks and food, we went to this place where even before we sat down the food in front of or faces. They were rice paper rolls that we made ourselves that were quite good but none of us understood how it all worked; it was just so weird, the bill being the weirdest part as it turned out to be quite expensive.
We hitted up a few places for cheap drinks and worked the crowd to find free ones. I did pretty good this evening as I was pretty drunk not spending much money.
