Day 27 - 21.08.15 - "Sophie, I don't think I'm getting my nails done!"

Short post again today as we were preparing for a night out tonight. Sophie and Kelsey wanted to go for another massage today, this time a hot oil massage. I decided I would like to get my nails done whilst they were having their treatment. We found a little dos along the road to go too. It was all very confusing and we sat down and immediately a bucket of hot water was put in front of us to wash our feet and to have a foot massage. I told the masseus I only wanted a manicure and she said "yes that's fine", although I got the feeling that she didn't know what I was saying.. I then got taken into a small room where a massage bed was. From that point on, I knew I was not getting a manicure. Oh well!! 
After our massages which were very very nice, we went to a restaurant around the corner. It had pho on the menu, which is a souo dish well known to Ho Chi Minh City. Sophie and I ordered it, and it came with a plate of fresh herbs, lime and chilli so that you could make the soup up exactly how you wanted. It was lush and I thought it was the best soup so far! 
We then came back to the hostel and snoozed so that we were fresh for a pubcrawl tonight that we booked tickets for.

  1. I'm surprised you didn't know that "Ahwan taman acure" means "I'll have a massage please" in Vietnam
