Vietnam - Mui Ne
On our last night in Ho Chi Minh we met up with our good friend John Hawk. He came to join us for the kiteboarding part of the trip. Early the next morning a car arrived to take us to Mui Ne, about a 4.5 hour drive north from Ho Chi Minh. Its one of those crazy drives with the entire road having only 2 lanes which somehow transforms to 3 or 4 lanes when the driver deems it necessary.
Kingsley and John, finally in Mui Ne and gearing up for a week of kiteboarding lessons!
It was great exploring Mui Ne. Interestingly there were tons of Russian tourist in Mui Ne. They tended to stick to the South end of the beach. In fact the restaurants and hotels in that area would often only have menus and signs in Russian. There were also lots of kiteboarders from all over the world, specifically quite a few from Germany. On several of the days we were there there were 300-400 kites on out on the water.
