A lot of rain and some meals accompany us today on the penultimate stage to Saigon. Unfortunately, I interrupt the recording a bit too early and 15km slip through our fingers;) But we arrive relatively early at the accommodation and have time to read in the afternoon.

Strengthened with a great breakfast from Patrick and Anh (crepes, Birchermuesli, Avocado Bahn Mih) we get back on the bikes and do a short recovery tour today.

Our first camping dinner last night went well, but the night was modest again in our tent and with the broken ISO mat. Halfway recovered we start the big ascent. After every curve we hope to find a small restaurant or a shop, but unfortunately without success. Only after 1500 Hm do we get our first meal

Today we treat ourselves to another decent stage to arrive in Nha Trang. Thanks to the previous days, we can feel our legs properly and are all the more looking forward to a real hotel room!

Today we spend a few hours in the saddle because we suddenly land in a hilly landscape and the road feels like rattling off every hill. 6 meals and a longer lunch break in the hammock give us enough power for the route. At dinner we are invited by a couple of guys for frog legs and a beer.

Today, thanks to Sascha's first puncture, we start at 8 a.m., but then make good progress. A good pho bo and an avocado banh mhi keep our motivation high until I get another flat tire and it really starts raining. After half an hour of driving in the rain we decide to look for accommodation and find

After our first western breakfast, we get back on the saddle and are making good progress on this overcast day. In the early afternoon we reach this provincial town and enjoy what is probably our best dinner so far at the market! A large selection of skewers and a tasty noodle soup, plus of course a

Despite the day off, we decide to go to Hoi An because we didn't find Da Nag that special. On the way here we look at the 'marble mountains', which are known for their cave buddhas.

Full of friends for our rest day in Da Nang, we kick off in Hue at 4:45 a.m. today. Without any concerns about today's stage, after 70km we reach a long tunnel that should take us to Da Nang Bay. But to our surprise, it is made clear to us here that we are not allowed to go through here but have to drive

A beautiful sunrise and no wind give us a great start to the day. Today we decide to do everything in one go and reach Hue at 11:30 a.m., a city steeped in history with an amazing canal system.

Today we start with great ambitions, but the strong headwind gusts bring us back to reality very quickly and we take our first breakfast break after only 15km. But then the wind dies down and the day becomes very varied, with 2 visits to the market and a long lunch break on a deserted beach. In the afternoon

Today we start freshly at 6 a.m. and hope for a cool morning. That was the case until 8 a.m., but after that it felt like 46 degrees according to the weather app! Despite headwind and high temperatures, we make good progress and reach our destination for the day at 2:30 p.m. In between I experience the

Unfortunately, our second camping night still doesn't go according to plan because it's way too hot in the tent and my sleeping pad has a hole in it. Nevertheless, we enjoy the sunrise and start cycling. For breakfast we eat Vietnamese pancakes that taste great. From 11 a.m. it is so hot (according to

And it's already the last stage together with Sascha, we can hardly believe it, but after 18 days we actually arrive in Ho Chi Minh, which is 2 whole days less than planned. Upon arrival at Hostel 9, we learn that 30 days is recommended for a motorcycle crossing of Vietnam. We smile and go for a well
