Taxi to airport – Traffic is a nightmare to drive in, you can do a U-Turn right in front of incoming traffic & no one worries!
Vietnam Air, 50 minutes to Nha Trang’s new Airport Cam Ranh (CXR) which is 35km out of town. Taxi into town costs us 150,000VND, with the driver taking full advantage of the new wide roads, travelling at up to 150kph.
Hotel is OK, we have a balcony, where we can dry our clothes, sitting area and the bedroom as 1 x double and 1 x single beds, nothing posh, but it’s clean and roomy. We are right across the road from the beach. Had a quick look around the hotel, then across the road to the beachside 4 Seasons café for a quick bite to eat, before Brendan could have a swim. We had a Pepperoni Pizza. The beach has little thatched umbrellas all over and you can rent the chairs to laze on.
I lost my shoes, on the walk up the beach, luckily David found them on the way back, they, had been in the water.
Had a good rain storm, David & Brendan were in the sea at the time, but, I got saturated on the beach holding everything.
Back to the hotel, so Brendan can have a swim in the kid’s pool. I came up early as I still have the sneezes, feel very fluey. Took some more tablets, showered, then we went for a walk around town.
Found El Coyote restaurant for tea which cost about 235,000VND.
On the way back Brendan needed to go to the toilet urgently, but didn’t make it fully, in time. David has a stitch from carrying Brendan at a full run and I need more tablets.
Don’t know what we are doing tomorrow.
