Hoi An, Vietnam - 12 and 13 March 2018

Activity week at school means the kids get to go somewhere glamorous. This year, Eliza has gone skiing in Japan and Callum has gone to Chiang Mai. So we decided to go to Hoi An.

Only a 1.5 hour flight from Hong Kong to Da Nang on Air Asia which was fine. Hotel had arranged a transfer and about 30 minutes later we were at the hotel, Silk Luxury Boutique Hotel.

Walked to the old town which is close and very pretty at night...

Had dinner at this rooftop bar / restaurant...

There are lanterns everywhere which makes the whole town look fantastic...

Next day after free hotel breakfast, went for a walk back to the old town. And yes they really do wear these hats...

The town looks a lot shabbier in the daytime...

The famous Japanese Bridge...

View from the hotel room...

Caught the hotel shuttle to An Bang beach and spent the day there...

Back into Hoi An for dinner...

Walking back to hotel. Hoi An is not a late town...

Hong Kong - March 2018

I thought this was cool. Look closely...

Kowloon Walled City. I'd been before in my first week and wasn't impressed. So I went again and still not overly impressed. I wouldn't go out of my way to go here...

Lunch at my favourite lunch place...$36 for two toppings - beef and shrimp wontons...

Walked The Peak for the first time at night...

The next day I walked The Peak again, and continued up the Treacherous Trail to High West...

Looking down to Cyberport...

New coffee place opened in Sheung Wan. Lemon tart...

Famous pastry shop has opened near work in Sheung Wan...

Went on a night hike through Meetup. Devil's Peak. Not a clear night. This photo is looking back to Hong Hong Island...

Annual Spring Dinner at Duddell's...

Found a new takeaway lunch spot...Taiwanese...great beef noodles...

Found a new barber in Kennedy Town...

Beautiful Spring day from my office...

One morning I hiked High West again. This time I walked down via Pok Fu Lam dam...

Sunday brunch with Sydney friend. I need to find a new spot, but I love it here...
