Day 205 – Choo choo street
Unfortunately, the construction did end up causing us rawkus… we have a couple filter coffees, shower and pack up to check out It’s a shame Booking.com make it so hard to cancel or at least amend the booking as the hotel has already paid commission to them for connecting us to them – the receptionist…

Day 204 – Feeling Hanoi-ed
An early start with the 5am church bells ringing outside the room, so overall a bad sleep, but actually slightly less awful than we expected – win? ????♀️ We pack up and leave as our Airbnb host has graciously accepted our request to leave and given a refund for the remaining days which was very…

Day 203 – A very delayed flight!
Up at 6:40am where we quickly pack and get downstairs for brekky Not as affluent of offerings as the previous hotel but it’ll do: veg noodles, toast, juices and Vietnamese coffee The hotel gives us a ride to the airport and we arrive with a good amount of time to spare; unfortunately, we have to…

Day 202 – The pool crawl
Up for breakfast, a lovely little bonus of this place After, we finish the end of Mortal Engine and get packed to check out of the hotel We have a very long trek to where we’re staying one night before leaving the island… across the road to the Home Park Hotel, as it’s about £10…

Day 201 – Coffee, chill and curry
Up around 9am making sure we don’t miss out on one of the highlights of our stay here: the international buffet breakfast ????

Day 200 – A little luxury for Davesy
Seems we’re hitting the utility outage bingo: the electricity goes out this morning so we are baked in our little hotel ???? we weren’t really sleeping anyways though as the curtains didn’t really do much and the local Cockerels were making themselves known! Rant over – we stew in the room until we pluck up…

Day 199 – Moving around Phu Quoc
We don’t have to be out of our hotel until midday today so get up later than usual – needed as well with the other guests at the hotel making a racket from 6am! To wake up, we have a few coffees with the bonus of some milk, we grabbed last night, making it much…

Day 198 – We’re being big kids today
Not too early, not too late this morning; we get up and have a quick coffee and shower and make our way straight to Venice Cafe We’re early enough today to enjoy their breakfast menu – Dave orders a treat of eggs Benedict and Daisy some beef noodles, a Vietnamese breakfast Stuffed, we continue on…

Day 197 – Fireworks are the new sunset ????
A later wake up gives Davesy enough time to actually have a good amount of energy for exploring! Dave is up before Daisy so does a little work and then we get up and head out We try the Vui Fest Bazaar street, we found last night, for some food – seems it’s only open…

Day 196 – A sunset in Sunset Town
So… from eventually making it into the hotel and finding the missing light switch to have actual darkness in the room, it was a pretty rubbish sleep – seems some of our neighbours needed to have detailed, loud discussions around 5am ???????? When we were meant to get up, we have a coffee and shower…
