Top 5 reasons we haven't posted during our Hoi An visit

5. We've been too busy going in and out of tailor shops for fittings
4. Hoi An is much quieter than Hanoi - no honking moto-bikes at 6am, so we've been sleeping in past 8:00 every day
3. Computer access stinks - even when they claim a DSL connection, it's really, really slow - and we've been bumped off Blogspot twice before we got to save the posting
2. Our hotel is paradise - palm tree-lined courtyard, really efficient air-conditioner in the room, fresh flowers and fresh fruit every day - heck, we've come back during the day for naps!
...and the top reason:
1. It's bloody hot & humid here. Hot, hot, Africa hot. Hot enough to make me realize I'm a wimp when it comes to hot weather. And couple that humidity & heat with slow computer times - that's a recipe for long lapses between postings.

We'll make up for it with some more posts tonight before we head out Friday for Nha Trang.
