The old town area of Hoi An (where most of the character and restaurants were) was incredibly touristy. It had a lot of charm and was full of hanging lanterns and colors, but was filled with gift shops, all full of the same overpriced junk. The real delight for me was at night. There was a walkway on both sides of the river and at night the whole area was lit up with hanging lanterns. It was so beautiful and suddenly you couldn't tell how touristy it was, or I didn't seem to care as much anymore. On the second day we rented a motor bike to get out of the tourist areas. We came across some oxen, and as you can see, Brian wasn't being shy. I was scared they would charge me, so I stayed back. Brian obviously got a better picture though, where the ox is practically sniffing his lens. The photo of the lake was during our drive back to the airport. I even got a nod of approval for that picture from Brian, which is saying a lot since he doesn't seem to notice many of my pictures.
