Onto Da Lat

Up and ready to go. We all arrive at the airport to find they have brought the flight forward by 50 mins ... We have 10mins to check in and board before takeoff. But wait there's more: we don't have tickets with check in luggage ... More time spend getting that sorted; but there is more Lawrie has his expensive penknife confiscated - check on eBay please!
Having delayed the flight by 20mins we are all on board.
Arrive safely bags included except of course the penknife.
It's cooler, 24C and raining. First impressions are of green rolling hills and no traffic!
BUT WAIT there's even more!! The hotel has no booking for us so we have to hunt around for another. All part of the rich experience .. no sweat really!
Found hotel just to the road so no problem.
The rain stopped and we walked around town ... Had a Chinese lunch then coffee in a really funky, retro cafe.
Much quieter than HCMC in the hills so you walk around with Asian/Mediterranean mix of atmosphere.Lue lisää
