After a four hour bus ride, we arrived in Hoi An. Southern Vietnam is drastically different than the north from everything to the people, food, and weather. On the way to Hoi An, we traveled through a mountain in a tunnel that took about 15 minutes. When we entered the tunnel on the north side it was rainy and cold. When we exited the southern end of the tunnel, the sun was shining and it was around 90 degrees.

Food looked delicious, city of lanterns delightful and child resting in the lantern lilly pad soulful. The dog and goat were for adoption? Really cute.
