I'll be
honest, not a lot has happened today apart from recovery. We have now
remembered some more snippets from last night like how we started the crowd
cheering excitedly at a balloon in the sky or when Tim decided his feet were
dirty so washed them in a toilet. Then there was the beer haggling contest
where the Vietnamese we were with tried to get us cheap beers and failed but
Tim came up trumps.
Any way,
on to today. We got up in the afternoon and went downstairs to find that all of
the hotel staff were still hungover despite only having two glasses of wine.
We went
to KFC for a cure which helped, but we were both sleepy so we decided to go to
the water park to fix that.
We took a
taxi there who rammed a motorcyclist on the way and started swearing later when
there were some police in the distance. Still we made it in one piece.

The water
park was busy with it being a national holiday but we still went on all the
slides. They're all designed for small lightweight Vietnamese so when we had a
go we set some new world records for speed and distance. On one slide we
cleared the splash pool at the bottom and slammed into the wall on the far
side!
Of course
our celebrity status continued at the park with people crowding to see us on
the slides and zip ropes as well as standing next to us to see how tall we were
(we were still the tallest).
We headed
back to the hotel after to plan our excursion for the 5th time, we found out
loads last night but neither of us can remember what!
We went
back to the American restaurant that we'd burned down a few nights ago as the
food was good and was pleased to see that not for the first time, the Americans
had pulled out of Nam as there were none in sight.

Walking
back through town we found a massive food festival for the first time. Despite
having just stuffed a massive steak down us we were both drooling at what was
on offer. We were good though and just made a note of where it is for tomorrow
night, Tim fancied the snail and octopus dish whereas Mark liked the look of
the prawn crackers.
Football
now, 10pm kick off, so we're in the cow bar watching four premiership games at
the same time, why can everyone apart from England show live game??? We like
the cow bar, it's always prostitute free though you can bring your own as part
of their BYOP scheme.
