30th birthday at Palm Garden Resort
Dear Jen,
I remember that we had an appointment to travel together to a far away place when we turned 30. Suri and I had an interesting time during our tour of Southeast Asia in Vietnam, typically Hoi An ancient town. An and Palm Garden Resort. Jen, what do you think if we hold a 30th date here next year?
BARE FEET ON GREEN GRASS
Palm Garden Resort has many beautiful "virtual living" corners: vegetable garden, wooden bridge, palm fronds... but my favorite is the green lawn stretching along the beach or around the swimming pool. Step on it with bare feet, feel the caress of the grass and trees, listen to the sound of waves crashing on the shore and "grasp" each gentle breeze that passes over your body, feeling the gentleness of nature. In the distance is the image of Cu Lao Cham dotted with beautiful small fishing boats on the sea like a very poetic picture in the sunrise.
VISIT HOI AN OLD TOWN
You can choose the resort's free bus or a taxi for 90,000 VND to get to the old town, but we chose bicycles because the road is only 5km. On both sides of the road from the resort to the old town, there are many rice fields and white storks flying. Rows of mossy tiled roofs, lanterns lighting up street corners, an ancient river slowly floating with lanterns carrying wishes, and street food make Hoi An different from other places. Tu, the resort staff, suggested going to the old town early in the morning (5-7am) or late at night to see the different peaceful beauty.
CELEBRATE THE NEW YEAR AT PALM GARDEN RESORT
My vacation is just in time to celebrate the new year. Welcoming the New Year at the resort is also very gentle in the cold weather: the lanterns in the garden are like stars, the dance on the melodious background sound reminds me of the seductive dance of the beloved fat girl Cailin in Vietnam. Which year is the graduation ceremony? When the screen counts down to the important moment, I wish you were here so I could give you a kiss to welcome the new year. I was captivated by the fragrant aroma of wine and many delicious dishes prepared by Palm Garden Resort's professional chefs.
There are many other interesting things about Hoi An that I will tell you about when I return after January.
Love you,
Lara
