Nha Trang (Beach Time!)

We took another bus from Mui Ne to Nha Trang which left at about 1:30 (read it picked us 2:30pm) and we arrived at around 8pm (I think, to be honest all the bus rides are kinda blending together in my head!)  We got dropped off in the middle of a crazy busy town!  Lots of lights, clubs, and restaurants, as well as the beach!  We headed off to our hotel where we dropped of our bags and headed out to dinner!
Nice View From the Bus

Yummy First Dinner in Nha Trang
We headed to bed then!  The next day we decided to explore the city, as there is a lot to explore.  Our first major discover was something called GOLDFISH!  I was so excited to see them, as I was craving them hardcore!

So AMAZING!

 We went to take a look at the beach and walk through the warm sand, the weather was not amazing as I am sure can see, but it was still nice to enjoy the sea air and the cold water!

Getting My Feet Wet!
Nice Beach!
Nice View of the Area!
 We then headed to lunch for a DELICIOUS lunch of Vietnamese cuisine.  It started with Spring Rolls, that we made, a delicious noodle/beef combo, and then of course a Mojito (with Lychee flavour).  All for something like 7 dollars per person!

My Yummy Lunch!
After lunch we walked around some more for some more discoveries before heading to the Night Market, which was nothing compared to the markets in Chiang Mai, but always fun to go to a look at!  I even got myself a nice 1 dollar bracelet!
Nice Little (Very Little) Night Market!
Then it was off to dinner, we headed to a place famous for making your own BBQ!
Yummy BBQ!
And finally we ended the day with crepes we found on our walk home!  Pretty packed day, mostly filled with food!  But delicious and fun!
Crepes for the First, but NOT the Last Time!

The next day we headed to the pier for our snorkeling tour!  We heard that this was one of the nicest places in Vietnam to see some awesome fish!  So after a late pickup (traffic was VERY bad) we made it to the pier and on the boat.  We spend about 1 hour heading to our first location!  On the way we went by a floating market!
The Cool Floating Market We Went By!
Then we headed to the first spot, which was pretty awesome, after about an hour we headed to the second spot!  Also pretty great, this second place had some jelly fish though so I was careful.  Pretty cool stuff!  Then lunch and one more spot.  The sun did come out for a little, although it never got too hot, which was nice, cause that means NO SUNBURN!
We Also Got to Jump Off the Boat!

Rammy Ram Also Came Along for the Fun!


Heading Home After a Long Day Snorkeling!
After a whole day of snorkeling we headed to our hotel for a warm shower and then off to dinner. This time we had some sushi, which was cheap and delicious (not quite as good as Vancouver!)
We had one more day in Nha Trang which we spent more time on the beach and walking around.  It was nice to have some relaxing time hanging out in a city enjoying the food and not having to worry about much!  Then it is of to Hoi An for some tailoring and our last city on the beach! 
Enjoying Some Ice Cream Together!
