Day 8 Hoi An

Today, we're sick :(  We've decided to take it easy for the day!  I've been waking up around 5 am. every day, so this morning I thought I'd check out the early morning activities of Hoi An.  These pictures were taken around 6 am. on the riverfront.
After breakfast at the hotel, and a quick fitting at some of the shops we'd ordered clothes at, we headed to the beach.  Unfortunately, it was a bit too chilly to relax seaside,  The waves were really strong that day, and the beach had taken quite a beating since the previous day.
We headed back into town and got some delicious lunch!  There aren't as many street vendors during the day in Hoi An, as a lot of the tourists are out on day trips, but we've run across a few, all selling this dish, Thit Nuong Cuon (grilled pork spring rolls).  They're delicious!  It's a DIY kind of thing, so you get to add as much as you want and then roll it up, dip and enjoy! 
After a little more shopping, we headed back to the hotel room to rest a bit before heading out for dinner.  We ate at a little place set up by the river across from the Citronella Cafe.  It was the only place we didn't like very much :(  On the plus side, we headed over to the Cargo Club after dinner for a delicous dessert!  They had a large selection of really great stuff!  We had the double chocolate cake.
