Hoi An

Last night Christina and I had the most amazing meal! She is a connoisseur of food, as am I, but she more so. She found a chef named Mr. Kim who has a fantastic reputation for seafood dishes and will create a custom 4 course selection every night for $100, 000 Dong($5). Last night we had prawns, calamari, fish, and crab. Every dish that they brought out to our table had us hmmming with pleasure. WOW!
We were all dressed up to go dancing, but this is a quiet town, so nothing was going on, so we went back to our hotel to watch a documentary on dance on the only English channel we receive. By the way, throughout my travels I have not splurged for A/C, T.V., or any meals above the $1-3 range, so I am really splurging with our $10 room($5 a piece), a/c/ when we turn it on, and our delicious culinary masterpiece for $5! I've been in heaven since I arrived in Hoi An. Today she and I biked to the beach, only 5 km away, and hit up another tailor shop. I'm having some stylin hunter green hiking knock-around trousers made with lots of buckles and zippers for my Cambodia adventure.
I'm so excited!
I just returned from the other tailor shop and my dress looks so avant-garde and elegant. I needed 1 nice dress to wear out and make a statement! I'll take a picture and post it on myspace soon. :) My travel pictures on myspace are available to the public if you have an account you can see them all: Thailand-Vietnam.
I'm just going to spend the next 2 days here chillin.
