I stayed the Novotel in Vietnam during my this summer vacation. They free room upgraded to bungalow because there was fully booked and I was membership of them. It was really big gift to me, so I could enjoyed my vacation more.
My room was very close to swimming pool and private beach. Open the window door, I would walk to pool and beach without shoes. It is pity that the weather was cloudy from the second day, but I didn’t mind and I spent relaxing time however rainy day.
I laid on the beach and played the sand like kids, and sometimes I set down in the beach without thinking just heard the sound of sea. This is why I want to leave from Shanghai for a while.
I have never been mud spa before, this time I did it. I took a taxi to mud spa for 10minutes from hotel. Their service was so nice and environments, materials treatments were also very good and it was cheap.
After mud spa, I and my friend went to the night market for dinner. At first we ate the beef Pho there because we were so hungry after long time treatment. And then walked around the night market and started to our big dinner. We choose alive the seafood, lobster, sea urchin, clam, king prawn. They were really fresh obviously in China we can’t imagine. We bought dried squids, black peppers, white peppers, and durians.
I went back to the room ate some of fruits in the garden. I didn’t need any music, the wind and sky made me fulfilled.
