    Up by 6:00am, we had a quick breakfast and met our group by 7:15am.
    Today, our group of 6 was: Erin and Mui, Margaret and Kevin from NZ and us.
    To safe $25pp, we had to walk out of the port area to meet our guide. It was pretty hot long walk despite early morning, but we made it.

    Today is the tour to visit Imperial city of Hue, citadel, the UNESCO world heritage site, the capital city of the Nguyen Dynasty.

    To reach old imperial city of Hue took us around an hour of drive. We also stopped along the road for much needed delish Vietnamese ice coffee. It tastes like chocolate.
    We visited many historical places, climbed many steps, had fantastic lunch in a beautiful restaurant and 😓 a lot.
    Came back to the ship all hot and very tired.
    In the evening we celebrated birthday of husband of the artist in residence. Fun dinner with friends.
    Glad, tomorrow is much needed sea day.
