My second day in DaNang, Vietnam. The first day was mostly sleeping off my jet lag, So far I'm happy with my choice of DaNang for the first stop. Five-minute walk to the beach, inexpensive food, and beer. For example today my breakfast (about noon) was a bacon and egg baguette with a beer, and tip $3.43.  A six-pack of beer, soap, and water at Circle K $6.05. Then dinner (fried rice noodle with chicken and vegetables, and 2 beers, and tip $4.29, Then 2 beers at a bar with a cool ambiance, with tip $3.65.
So today including my room was $25.42. If I repeated that every day I'd be looking at spending $763,00 a month.
Did a little walking around today, building going on everywhere, lots of Chinese tourists, some European, met a couple of Aussie retired coppers (policemen), and am just getting my footing here. It's a bit jumbled as far as what's where, and I think the area is growing in tourist popularity, probably much like Thailand was 15-20 years ago.

Still extremely tired from the trip, but I should be 100% in a day or two.
Going to have to figure out how to do a mass email to link everyone to this blog. Wish me luck!
Now for more sleep, luckily the bed is comfy, and the A/C works great.
