All was going so well until the karaoke kicked in at 8pm.

At a shade over £10 my hotel last night was cheap but the carpet was so horrible at no point did I put my feet on it. I slept in my sleeping bag liner and the water did not drain away from the shower floor. 🤢

Queues at every ATM at 9am

On the road by 8.30 another flat riding day. I had covered 80kms by 12. Finally I dis get off the main road I was on and rode a coastal road. Flat fast and quiet.

I decided to splash out on an expensive hotel £13. So at about 4pm I rolled up to The White Palace in Ha Tinh. Its big and imposing.

At 5 I walked to a supermarket to buy a few supplies, while shopping I met a South African guy who suggested a resturant close. He sat down as well and consumed a great meal.

We parted company and I walked back to the hotel and lay on the bed thinking of sleep. It was then I checked my clock and discovered it was only 7pm. After reading a bit. My worst nightmare happened a Karaoke machine cranked up, loud enough to vibrate my room. Grrrrrrrrr. Now where are those earplugs.
