Easy rider Asia.

Yeah okay so it is a little odd that I chose now to try out riding a scooter around through crazy traffic. I went down to the front desk because I have heard that you could cheaply rent a scooter and it was a good way to get around and not have to pay for taxis and tours. So for the low price of ten dollars a day I said okay. The woman showed up with the scooter and a set of keys. No paper work. No insurance, no nothing. Just a set of keys, a helmet and a 30 second tutorial...... Yeah so it was so damn fun I had a smile on my face all he way around town like those photos of idiots smiling at the rental car office. I made my way up to a place called he marble mountains. A beautiful rock platue Comprised mostly from marble. On top here were several temples and a series of caves that had carved statues and temples inside. It was super cool, complete with rays of light streaming in to light up the statues. It was probably the most impressive thing I have seen since I arrived here. After that I hoped on my trusty steed and made my way back to town for lunch. Tomorrow I ride the long haul up to Hue.
