Around Hoi An

There is a beach close to Hoi An and we hired bicycles to have a look around.  It was nice to have the freedom of the bikes since we haven't had a car or any mode of transport that is our own for 4 months.

Phil with our bikes, yes it was cold!

  It was really windy as well, unfortunately this is the shot of the beach of Hoi An, was a dreary day.

 Love the petrol station, the pump is in front of the power pole, just a tiny bottle and a pump.

                                                   A fishing boat area we rode past.

                      I gathered they either hired these carts of made them there, interesting photo that's all.

 This is where we had lunch looking over the river, the boat above floated past us as well.  The restaurant is the Slow Food Restaurant, we felt very relaxed and the food was really nice, clay pot style slow cooked dishes.

Watched this lady every day across the road from our hotel, back breaking work picking food from the wetlands and I know she wasn't young.

                                                       Buffalo in the rice paddies.

 Went past lots of rice paddies, nice to see as this is what I expected Vietnam to look like.

Just throwing this one in....?  Unsure if you need to watch out for Elvis and Priscilla running across the road?  It is close to but not next to a pedestrian crossing.
