Had great fun at the cooking class although the walk through the local Hoi An markets before the class had the girls horrified by what they saw, eg. chickens in baskets etc!
In the afternoon we went to My Son a temple complex which was bombed during the Vietnam war (see picture). We were there in torrential rain & unless you were wearing plastic poncho you were soaked to the skin plus shoes were soaked from wading through water -and the guide kept talking!
Next day was mainly spent in Danang airport because of 2 + hours delay. We thought our party of 22 girls was large but a school from NZ had 48! Yes plenty of adults but that must be a nightmare getting them all at the right place at the right time.
Yesterday was a visit to the Cu Chi tunnels & then in the afternoon to the War Remnants museum - very confronting for the girls.
We (the teachers) are exhausted & looking forward to the last couple of days where there is no official itinerary so perhaps we can have breakfast later than 7am & can all (students) spent time at the pool. No doubt we'll be asked to take the girls to the markets to spend all their remaining Dong!
