We departed late today around 11am as we planned on driving around 140 km to the town of Kham Duk which is close the the Laos border to rejoin the Ho Chi Minh Trail. We made a wrong turn coming out of Hoi An which we never realized until we reached the outskirts of Da Nang which is north and totally in the wrong direction. We retraced our route south and nearing Hoi An we found the route west which for the most part was one continuous village surrounded on both sides by rice fields. Our progress was slow as we encountered bad roads of mud, sand,dirt, gravel and massive dips. After reaching Tham My we turned south through paved twisty roads with lush jungle, rocky river bottoms and stunning countryside. We arrived Kham Duk around 4pm and decided this location as our stopping point.
