Photos finally!
I have found a place here in Nha Trang which has the stuff which allows me to look at my photo CD. Yesterday we (yes, I have made some friends, two English girls I met on the road last week) went on a boat trip which involved snorkelling and generally splashing about in the water drinking wine. It was good. But I made this CD a few days ago so there are no photos from that day. The day before we just lazed on the beach all day. And then drank too much wine in the evening. Today we are going to a mineral mud bath (maybe) and then getting the night time bus to Hoi An.
Here are some photos from the last week. I am sorry but I am way too sunburnt to even attempt to be entertaining right now....

this is a silk worm presilk producing days
this is a stairway in the Crazy House guesthouse in Dalat
this is the very cute farmer's daughter who held my hand during the whole tour
Elephant Falls. Not in the guidebook but gorgeous anyway
When we went to the Chicken Vilalge it started to rain and some girls lent me a hat. Nice.
When it was still raining later at the Dragon Pagoda we had to give in and put on ridiculous raincoats
This is a long house in Lac Lake. You probably can't see all the animals that live under it. The village is a Mnong tribe one. They live in longhouses and keep elephants.
See! An elephant
This is the elephant next to Binh's bike- our own beast of burden

This was mad bamboo chopstick making- fast and furious with no safety controls at all.
And there you go. I could post hundreds more photos but I have other things to do today. Hope you enjoy them!

Fast and furious like the ready money round?
Cowboy cuckoo clock!?!
As always, thanks for getting the pics posted, Helen. I'm living vicariously through you and enjoying the trip immensely! Even without the photos, though, you paint a very vivid picture. I love the way you write. Looking forward to tomorrow (so go easy on the wine and enjoy the mud baths)! I really wanna hear about those!
you may think it is a secret, first poster, but I know only two other people who would write that!
And, cheers, Les, mud baths were cool. Maybe I should write about them now....
are you thinking of yourself, me and her? she doesn't write here so it must have been me.
Just linked to your blog from some other blog. Nice photos. But, is it just me or is there a headless man on the elephant?
