Vietnam: Day 12

Nha Trang is a bustling city full of tourists.  We were just discussing how many tourists we've seen and think there are more here than we've seen anywhere in Korea.  The industry is set up for Russians as there are non-stop flights from Moscow to Nha Trang since they built a new airport just out of town.  What they'll do with the old one is anyone's guess.  We can see it from the hotel rooftop pool and I can make out tiny motorcycles riding across it.  Apparently it's a shortcut to the other side.

This is a motorcycle culture here.  It makes sense as you can get up to 4 people on them and you don't need a license.  And since it's tropical it's pretty warm most of the year.  I actually think nobody walks here.  They sidewalks are reserved for motorcycle parking it seems.

We enjoyed our last day of 2014 by hitting up the public market and doing a little shopping.  Erin found something to try on but was met head-on with a rat in the changing room so she decided that the clothes would not fit her at all and went to cleanse her mind with an ice cream cone and some Beach Boys music.
