One of the reasons for our visit to Da Nang is to visit our friend, Hien, and her family. Hien was a student in Brisbane before she came back to Vietnam at the end of last year. She is now working in HCM city but flew back to Da Nang to spend the weekend with us. We went to Hoi An, a world heritage site, which is less than an hour south of Da Nang. Hoi An is not as impressive as we thought. It does have numerous shops selling souvenirs and tailors making made-to-measure jackets/dresses/pants/suits for a very small price. Hoi An is flooded every year! The photo with the different faces showed the levels of flood water each year. Everyone who visits Hoi An will try the famous Cao Lau noodles which is only found here. Pretty good. We are pleased to finally meet Hien's family and thankful for the home cooked food by Hien's mum. Look at the spread...we were so stuffed at the end of the night.

So nice to see my family's pic here. My family also really expected to see you guys. I have talked abt you guys for years. Mum kept repeating that she wanted to invite you guys for dinner sumtimes during your time in Danang. However, none of my family members can speak English , then, only can see you one time. Thank for bringing the cute cakes for my family.
