11 Sept R & R @ Sa Huynh

Today is a rest and recreation day...but I still woke up at 4;40 am..read my lonely planet book and then watch a movie on my iphone then at 5 30 am I went to clean my bike again..and re=lubricate it...I saw Lou coming back from the beach after a swim..so we both started fixing our bikes..I tighten all the screws and nuts..and while I was tightening the screw on my pannier rack the screw snap and the other part was stuck in side the frame..we also noticed that many of the screw on the pannier racks were..starting to get rusty..and Also my bike horn is not sounding the same , maybe water has rusted some of the parts inside so I took it apart and dried it in the morning sun...did some laundry last night and it was still wet cos I think it rain last night..after re lubricating our bikes we went to the restaurant next door for our usual breakfast of beef noodles soup and Vietnamese coffee..we stayed there till lunch time and ordered lunch..today we had fried fish cutlets..beef with chili and lemongrass..salad..and steam rice..and more Vietnamese coffee on ice..the restaurant next to our hotel is a very good seafood restaurant..many tour buses stop here and the passenger eat their lunch and dinner here..its always very very busy at lunch and dinner time..the price is very very reasonable,, for our breakfast and lunch together cost 195.000 dong..$15 Aussie dollar.. after lunch we had a little nap..then at 4 pm I went to get my bike fix again by the same bike shop that..clean my bike chain he did a good job so I gave him 10.000 dong ,.80 cents Australian.
