20 Sept Dalat

I woke up early as usual,we had coffee in the front yard of Tony's house with a nice view,then we took a taxi to Dalat's town to a coffee shop to have breakfast of baguette and fried eggs and coffee ,later we walk around "CHO DALAT" dalat market looking for a water bottle to replace the ones that I have lost along the way.we saw many kinds of fruit wines for sale in the market like strawberry wines, rasps berry wines and lots of fruits and vegetables ,in fact Dalat reminds me of our Hill resort in Malaysia called "Cameron Highlands" except thet they don't grow tea leaves here.
After that we walked to Truong Vy's office she is an accountant for a motorbike shop, one of the biggest in Dalat town,we then had lunch at a Chinese restaurant the lady boss spoke Cantonese and Mandarin she recommended their specialty " WON TON" noodles17 members of her family works in this restaurant and her brother said he had been hand making the noodles for the last 40 years.
That night we said we will treat tony and his wife for dinner ,so they took us to a nice Vietnamese restaurant,but when we got there there was a blackout..tony said that the Vietnamese government was selling electricity to the Cambodians.. tony ordered B-B-Q frog.Roast pigeon,chicken feet salad and the main course was "tom yum" canh cua...a tom yum flavor fish hot pot eaten with thin rice vermicelli
