Today we didn't really do much as it turns to out there isn't a lot to do here. The city is developing very fast with huge amounts of building going on.
We got a taxi to the train station and had to jostle in the least organised queue I've ever seen to get our tickets for tomorrow. Then we went for a burger king as we were missing some western food. On the walk around city we passed over the huge brand new bridge in Da Nang, it features a huge metal dragon through the middle that shoots fire from its mouth at night.
Later we went back to the hotel and then down to the beach for a relax. Still we were being looked at strangely as we seem to be the only white people in this area.
For dinner we went to one of three restaurants in our area, they didn't speak English and tried to make us view their large alive seafood collection with crabs, lobsters, prawns and plenty of varieties of fish. I ordered what I thought was stir fried beef with chillies that actually turned out to be raw slices of fillet beef with a stove and pot full of boiling chilli sauce. I had to cook my own dinner bit by bit and Lucy had to use chopsticks only on large cuts of fish. Now we're back at the hotel packing for tomorrow.

Ha ha! Sounds a bit like going to Juan's for dinner.
