Arriving in Mui Ne

Feeling a little bit worse for wear, I caught the bus to Mui Ne. It was a sleeper bus, so it had beds, which was a bit weird in the day but in my hungover state, I was quite glad of it.

When I arrived, my first impression was it reminded me of a holiday resort. There was a pool at the hostel which was nice but I was so tired that I thought I'd crash out for a bit.

 I'd been there for about 10 minutes when I got chatting to a guy in my dorm who said he was going to the waterfall with his friends and asked if I wanted to come. I though I could always nap later so we got his friends and biked to the waterfall.

When we got there (to the fairy stream where the waterfall was,) we had to walk down the path until we found some steps leading to the stream. We realised that we would have to walk through the stream to get to the waterfall. We took our shoes off and walked down.

There were lots of cool rock formations and sand red sand dunes. The sand turned a bit squigy and almost cardboard-like to walk on in places. It looked pretty cool where the red sand met the stream.

The rocks started to get a bit spikey further down. We finally got to the waterfall which turned out to be pretty  underwhelming! 

The picture probably makes it look more impressive!

After that we headed back to the hostel and got dinner. I decided on a quiet night and wasn't feeling too great so just chilled in my dorm room.

I'm in Dalat now, which is considerably colder. I've had to put my hoody on!
