Enough enough enough of the Hanoi-Hue-Hoi An-Nha Trang-Mui Ne-Saigon tourist trail! We had no idea it would be this bad. It became ever so clear when we met the same Dutch couple from the night train again on the streets of Hoi An. Whether you are going north-south or south-north...there's quite a few people on your same tour. So from Nha Trang, we got on a bus headed south for Mui Ne, except we organized a drop off for just ourselves in Phan Rang. As we got off the bus in this "obscure" location, another traveller leaned over and asked, "why here? what's going on in phan rang?" well, we can't give up all our secrets (or else the phan rang area will be overrun eh?), so we ran off the bus, hopped on some moto taxi's and...after some confusion as to what we pay for where we're headed...we got through that it was Ninh Chu beach for $5. What we arrived to was 10km of white sand....and not another whitey for 100miles! Sweet! Although the first resort we checked was too pricey for these backpackers (25-50 bucks, ouch!;), a resort just down the same beach was only asking $15-25/bungalow...sold! We have been here for 2 nights now, getting tired of their restaurant...but not of their smiles and friendly attitude! Ahh, so nice to have some locals that aren't jaded by the traveller. After a day of laying on the beach, we took another moto out today and headed south along this empty coastline...
