    Vietnam - day 18

    1. juni 2019, Vietnam ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C

    Today definitely wasn’t our best day hahaha, got woken up at 5am by the bus crew shouting Nha Trang - we knew e needed to change bus here but when we tried to get off and collect our bags the driver wouldn’t let us off and said for Mui Ne we had to stay on this bus lol. After 20mins of driving, the bus pulled into a dusty bus car park genuinely in the middle of NOWHERE, and the driver who spoke barely any English told us we had 3 hours TIL the bus left haha cry. Ended up walking into Nha Trang in desperate search of food and as no where was open Oreos were our only choice for breakfast lol. Got on our next bus and then the AC stopped working and we broke down 3 times hahaha. Anyway eventually we arrived at Mui Ne and checked into VBH village hostel. It was SO beaut - we were in love. Mils and I were just sunbathing and then suddenly I see one of my friends Verity from India - so so random but so fun to see eachother again! ended up eating lunch and catching up for a few hours and then wandered around Mui Ne town! We went for the nicest dinner at a VERY local restaurant this night right on the waterfront - was so beaut and we were the only westerners in there! Came back and chilled w verity before heading to bed!Læs mere

    Today was the BEST day ever!!!! Met up with our friends we met yesterday and we had rented a car and driver for the day to do the west coast of the island. We started off going to Klingking Beach which was just as beautiful as all the pictures we’d seen, walked down the steep steps and saw some monkeys! We then headed to angels billabong and broken beach which were also both so beautiful - the water was so blue! After this we headed to Crystal bay where we had lunch all together and swam in the sea! Headed back to the hostel and chilled by the pool, knackered from the day! Millie and I then very spontaneously decided we wanted to see the sun set so we quickly rented mopeds and rode down to Crystal bay again to see the most beautiful sunset ever!

    Today we got up early ish and headed down to the port to leave Gili Air! Had breakfast on the boat and arrived at our next island Nusa Penida at lunch time. Checked into our beaut hostel Nuansa Penida hostel and got cold tea and snacks on arrival, very fancy! We chilled here and met some really nice girls who we decided to spend tomorrow with! had some lunch and then rented mopeds to ride the east coast of the island. The island is actually huge so we rode through so many villages on the way which was amazing to see some proper Balinese villages. We eventually reached Thousand Island viewpoint after a very bumpy ride which was just incredible. The view was insane we were in love! We then headed down a very scary footpath (Mummy would have hated it) to Diamond beach and this was just as amazing, one of the best beaches I have ever ever been to. Watched as the sun set and then rode back to our hostel; the ride was so much fun as the sun went amazing colours and we stopped at a restaurant on the beach front on the way back for some dinner! Best day, we love Nusa Penida already!Læs mere
