Nha Trang Day 1

The bus ride was the worst 12 hour ride of my life. The bus was uncomfortable and the ride was stop and go quite a bit. People kept changing seats next to me so I couldn’t get much sleep. The TV and Radio was on most of the time and the volume was quite load as well. I think I got a total of 1 hour of sleep the entire time. We arrived in Nha Trang at about 6:30 am. The bus dropped us off in front of some cheap hotel. We didn’t want to stay there so we took another taxi to our hotel where we actually got some real sleep. We woke up, had some seafood hotpot for lunch and I booked my scuba diving trip for tomorrow. Now I’m sitting on Nha Trang beach just relaxing as we don’t quite have plans today. The beach here kind of reminds me of Monterey. The air is a little more humid but the water is the greenish blue that I remember growing up. The sand is not as fine as that found in California. Overall Nha Trang has that seaside resort appeal to it. There are lots of tourists here many hotels to accommodate for them. It reminds me much of Monterey.
