just some small shit. we rented motorbikes today and road to marble mountain. it was super sick. there were like 5 pagodas and 6 caves alll with shrines. it was the coolest religious momument we have been to so far. the ride there was about 15 km, and i totally tried to open up on the road, got that bitch up to 80 km/h. not that fast when you convert but still super fun. this vietnamese lady started a conversation on the road and asked where we're from and charlie replied, america and she dropped a super awesome on us; it was pretty funny. she let us park our motorbikes at their family marble shop while we visited the mountain. on the way home we both almost died, trying to pass a cart and a big fucking car mashing on the wrong side of the road trying to get by some tourists on bicycles. seriously like threading the needle. it was cool that we lived. we stopped for some dinner at a bbq joint after that and there was mad weird food, pig intestines, chicken feet, pig ear, pig tail, i don't even know what else. i thought we were going to keep our weird food trend up but we eventually just bought chicken and rice. it was super delicious and we both wanted to ask for a receipe but they spoke no english. after when we were about to leave, i asked the dudes at the table what they were eating and they gave me a bite and a shot of rice wine. i took both and a dude at the next table spoke good english so i asked him what it was and he said intestine and ear and all the random shit off a pig. wasn't bad, just salty and a bit fatty on some parts. so continues our daring each other to eat weird shit. i would have probably never went this far, foodwise, if charlie wasn't here; so i'm happy for that. not sure what else to write, hoi an is a bit of a tourist trap and we want to get to an area to post up and get to know the neighborhood and not spend so much money. even though shits hella cheap. have a good one, i hope every one is awesome and i'll try to post some pictures soon.
later,
nick
