Last night we met back up with our new Australian friends for a
farewell drink and dinner. We drank at Bia Hoi corner on tiny plastic
chairs that quickly got dragged off the street every time the crappest
cops in the world went past and then headed to a place packed full of
locals for food. Each table was given a big plate of meat strips,
veggies and a parafin burner and, again on tiny plastic chairs, we
cooked our own dinner (well Michael did cos he’s a chef in Sydney).
When the strips & veggies were done we grabbed a few, stuck them in a
baguette and shoved it in our mouths. Delicious! A few more beers
followed before we had to say goodbye.

Today we had a very welcome lie-in followed by a nice hearty
breakfast. Then we had a last wander around the city before going to
watch the wonderfully tacky water puppet show (see photo). Some parts
were pretty clever and it was definitely worth going but I doubt we’d
rush back for a second performance!

Early start tomorrow before our flight so will have a quiet evening we
think.
