Woke up and headed to the internet cafe to have some dvds copied and a new dvd burned. I’m going with a two dvd system, now that I no longer have a hard drive. Got all of them done, except one copy – which failed, and seemed to have messed up the only computer with a dvd writer.<\/p>\n

I wandered around old town, checking out the many art galleries, and grabbed some breakfast. I got an email from John and we decided to meet for a drink at Treat’s Cafe at 1pm. I headed there for 1, and waited around but he was nowhere to be found. After 20 minutes, I checked my email and there was nothing from him, so I figured I’d best check to see if there was another Treat’s Cafe in Hoi An. In Vietnam, there’s no copyright law, so there’s nothing to stop a company from opening another store\/company with the exact same name. Turns out John was down the street at Re-Treat cafe, which is same same but different (Later I stumbled across a third Treat’s Cafe, so it’s really a problem).<\/p>\n

Had a lemon juice with John, and sat around and talked. He was heading to the beach, so I figured I’d wander through old town, then have a shower to cool down. Very hot day – and probably a better day for the beach. I read in my cool room, then got ready to meet Philippe (who just arrived in Hoi An) and John down by the river.<\/p>\n

Met up with the boys, had a shake, then headed to Before and Now for dinner – which was recommended quite highly by Stefan and Magnus from the rock climbing in Van Vieng. After dinner (Italian, quite good), I headed back to the hostel to do some reading.<\/p>\n
