Tay Backpacker Hostel, Da Lat, Day 3

So as predicted we both wake up with pretty sore heads today after last night. We manage to make breakfast (Amy wasn't going to until she found out it was fried eggs) but retire back to the room for another few hours after eating.
When we feel more human we head for the cable cars. It's another long walk and after yesterday we are both pretty knackered (due to the walking and boozing) so it's nice when we finally get into the small cab. It doesn't last long which is nice as it's pretty scary, but the views are great, looking out other Da Lat and over the mountains and forests that surround it. We hear it's cool on the other side, but when we get there we realise we have made a slight mistake.
On our walk yesterday we completely walked past the cable car station, which is at the temple we couldn't get in. So we make the journey on the cable car and end up exactly where we were yesterday.
Luckily we weren't correctly dressed to get into the Buddhist temple complex then so we go in now. It's a cool place, with lots of monks wandering about and a nice lake.
After visiting the temple we head back on the cable car, it doesn't seem as scary now we've already made one journey, and get a taxi to Huan Xuong lake, where we take an annoyingly squeaky ride on a pedalo, before heading back to the hostel. We then chill out for the rest of the night before having another huge family dinner and heading back to the room to watch a film. No booze!Leggi altro
