Thursday, Feb. 26

,Slept in until 8:00!
We went down for breakfast and started with a plate of bananas and fried sticky rice patties that are only eaten during TET.



I decided to order one of the Hoi An specialties - Cau Lau 



We hung around the room this morning relaxing.  Around 11:30 we walked towards the Saigon Spa.  Bruce had a 90 min Vietnamese massage while I had a pedicure as well as a 60 min Vietnamese massage with hot stones.

After the massage we walked towards the clothing and shoe market. 

We stopped at the gallery where I was admiring a painting, and found one just the right size.  $48 had to have it!


I really wanted this one - but too big!

We picked up two pairs of shoes for me and one pair for Bruce - we now have all of them.







Then we went to the clothing market.  We almost have all of our clothing so only one more time to go to pick up the rest.


She is really little, honest!

Ten bags of clothing so far...... Hate to open them to show....... But lots, they turned out great!

Then weighted down with bags we went to pick up my purse.  The girl couldn't believe how many bags...and said no worries, she would deliver them on her motorbike for us!  So, we went out for dinner.

We ate at another Riverside restaurant.  We had the banana flower salad first.  Then we shared grilled prawns and Indonesian fried rice.  For dessert homemade coconut ice cream and fresh fruit.

Even two little baked potatoes

Time to walk home

Love all the little lanterns

We got home and our bags had been delivered.  When we got to our room we had a nice plate of fruit waiting for us.

Dragon fruit and passion fruit

Our towels change shape every day.

Time to rest and play Scrabble and have a glass of wine.
