After getting a pinched nerve from sleeping on an overnight train ride recently, I’m so glad we decided to fly from Ho Chi Minh City to Hoi An. With my fussy stomach, I don’t know how I would have survived the 17-hour train ride (7:00 pm to 12:00 pm).
Kenric got a pleasant surprise on Vietnam Airlines – comfortable legroom even in Economy Class. Remember that, all you tall people. The view as we were getting into the Da Nang Airport was beautiful. The 45-minute ride from the airport to Hoi An was smooth.
Kenric was so happy with the legroom situation. Fly Vietnam Airlines if you need extra room for all the hair on your knees. Wo ai knee! ❤❤❤
The rays and the mountains ❤❤❤ Flying into Da Nang Airport which is about 45 minutes away, by car, from our destination Hoi An.

We’re lucky to have found a room that fits our low-end budget at the Hai Yen Hotel! Dinner was good. The restaurant had a Christmas tree made of bamboo bird cages. We hope to check out the beautiful ancient town of Hoi An tomorrow.
$26 per night. No free breakfast. Low-end budget, Hai Yen Hotel. Orivy Restaurant. Hoi An Spring Rolls (Cha Gio) – Great. White Rose (Banh Vac) – OK. Papaya Salad with Dry Beef – Great. Christmas in August – Why not?
