Day 55: Hoi An Day 5

-Marco had to go for his final suit fitting in the morning. I stayed at the hostel thinking it would take an hour max, a few hours later he finally got home, at which point I was pretty grumpy from being cooped up. We went for the local white rose for lunch; I wasn’t a fan so we then went somewhere else for some western food.

-In the afternoon we met up with James and Katie to go to the beach. Somehow James convinced Katie to rent one, even after their crash into a fruit stall in Chiang Mai. We went over to the beach Marco and I had found yesterday and swam around. Marco and I stayed until sunset, taking in the beautiful view.

-Once back and showered we went to have our final dinner in Hoi An by the river. There were these hilarious kids sitting behind us talking about the funniest things. One of them was getting really cross at a family friend for smoking a cigar, telling him he was going to die in two years. Lovely.

We then made some last minute purchases before meeting up for drinks with Jamie and Katie. We went to another place by the river and had the most disgusting cocktails ever. It was humorous how bad they were. Luckily I had ordered a bear so didn’t have to endure the disgustingness. We then went to the local mart to buy some chocolate milk, the natural follow up to drinking.
