| This girl spoke a little English and helped us order Breakfast in the Dalat Central markets. She rang her sister on her mobile so we could explain to her sister in English, just to make sure she understood us correctly. |
We had warm weather in Nha Trang, but, our next destination was Dalat situated inland in the mountains with mild and cooler weather.
Back on the open ticket bus again, we were expecting to travel south along the coast from Nha Trang before heading inland to Dalat, but, the bus travelled along a very scenic route through a twisting winding road with a lot of hair pin bends. We had never been on this route before.
With in a few K's out of Nha Trang the traffic stopped and with the odd exception of a motor bike the road was very quite indeed.
On arrival in Dalat we re confirmed our next bus ride, before flagging a taxi down to find our next hotel that we had a voucher for. The hotel was the worst one we stayed at during our whole trip. The young girl realised we were not happy and upgraded us to a hotel one door away, with the exact same name with a number 2 added to it. This new room was very good and had a lot more space as it had two double beds. it was on the second floor with no lift.
Dalat was much the same as our previous visits, we checked out the lake and the central area, then visited a new store called the Big C. This chain of stores are all over Vietnam nowadays and are much the same as a
super Kmart, but, on a smaller scale. We also went to see the Chicken Church situated high on a hill over looking Dalat.
