Today we spent most of our time in Vinh Long. First we visited the floating market where people sell fruits, veges and even cooked meals. Then we took a stroll around the land market and bought fresh durian for breakfast. Definitely one of the highlights of the day. Also tried soursop for the first time. It's pretty good. For breakfast we had pho bo and a vietnamese bun and coffee in the market.
My favourite part of the day was the 2 hour bike ride through the villages. Biked through rice paddies, past coconut and jackfruit trees. Such a pleasant ride. Interesting to have to share a metre wide path with motorbikes too.
What an amazing hotel we stayed in. To think it's considered a 2 star. Maybe it's the huge contrast from the homestay, but I felt like it was a 4 star hotel. Best sleep I've had during this trip.
