Day 47: Nga Bay - Vi Thanh
Routing: DT927, QL 61, 61B
And another great day! Vietnam is really impressing me. I can only try to anticipate what it would all be like without the New Year related traffic and - even worse - karaoke. It really is a factor as they have walls of speakers in every second house and scream their lungs out. And believe me, the quality of performances is extremely far below average to my western ears. They are enjoying it though and that´s what counts- I am in Vietnam and not in Germany!
How delightful would that #927 be without all that noise? Hard to imagine as I loved it as it is. The road runs directly next to that canal all 27 km and is lined with tropical vegetation and lovely little houses. Most enjoyable. Even the two Highway 61 and 61B sections were ok as the traffic was as usual well behaved. Short day on the road and it didn´t take me long to find a very pleasant accommodation as well. The family run Khách Sạn Phong Nhã had a well equipped room with balcony for 200000 dong for me. And I can hardly blame them for the eunuch chanting from the property opposite...
