Hai Van Pass and Hoi An

Hello to all

we certainly did make it a fantastic experience and an emotional one as we saw each other achieve so much, each person working hard and getting up that pass. It was a spectacular ride, barely any traffic and views of distant beaches, mist and boats and jungle. We stopped every couple of kilometres to regroup and cheer each other on and give the legs a quick rest before going up again and finally reached the top finishing all together,and true syle with a small costume on over the top in true super hero style.If you are wondering what the print is on our knickers it reads Hai Van Pass Kiss My ….
After celebrating with delicious iced coffee and a few trinketts purchased as momentos of the ride we had a great freewheel down the other side and onto China Beach for lunch. Jo and Fiona even squeezed a surf in at China Beach during the lunch stop.

We then had a bit of a Mordy headwind as we rode the last 20km into Hoi An which is a stunning ancient city bustling with tourists shops and beautiful buildings,rice paddies and river.

This afternoon we are visiting the Lifestart Projects and seing Karen as we cycle to the projects around the town.

Luv to you all and please feel free to post comments as we love hearing from you.
