Hue

After a sunny and peaceful 8 days in Hoi An, we woke up this morning to rain - lots and lots of rain. Today was also a travel day for us, as we were moving on north to Hue, approximately 2hrs north of Hoi An. After an early breakfast and checkout, we failed to find a Grab that would take us the short distance to the bus stop so we had to walk in the rain. As we'd done a decent amount of shopping in Hoi An, we had to upgrade one of our 40L backpacks to a suitcase, which poor Mike had to drag 900m over uneven roads, kerbs and footpaths full of scooters. We boarded our minibus, which made a stop at Da Nang Airport, and then we were on our way. When we arrived in Hue 3hrs later, and feeling rather car sick, the sliding door of the minivan jammed - after the driver spent a good 20mins trying to open it, we eventually had to climb over the front seats to exit the van.
