Rachel Riley Instagram – Ok, last holiday spam post, I promise!
Such a great time being out so far East, can’t wait to explore in that direction some more as the girls get bigger
Had loads of replies from lucky people saying they’re off to Vietnam soon so here’s what we did and loved that we haven’t already mentioned!
@danang.mikazuki water park – the Japanese baths on the top floor were 🤩 and our first taste of soft plays at all the attractions (we counted up 9 in 2 weeks – the kids were in heaven!)
@nuithantaihotspringspark natural hot springs, water park and mud baths – gorgeous up in the hills
@vinpearl.official Hoi An, theme park with its own waterpark and animal safari – so great! More, huge soft play, free arcades and fountains show
The Dragon Bridge in Da Nang breathes fire (and then sprays water) twice a week, what a spectacle
@helio.center has street food, music, a funfair outside and an enormous bouncy castle, soft play, arcades inside
@little.banahills cute photo ops with flower sculptures
@sunworld.vn kids loved the vehicles to drive around like menaces, another fun Asia style theme park
@hyattregencydanang @kayak_uk our lovely home for a fortnight, Da Nang has the nicest beaches, and they had a great kids pools and club and loads of vegan options for us
The city also has loads of kids’ cafes with fancy dress and imaginative play areas, most open till 10.30pm and nice to be in – I wish they’d make them like that in UK
As soon as we found out that ‘chay’ meant vegan we hit loads of great restaurants the local Buddhists eat at, loved the cao lau noodles, banh xeo pancakes and banh mi baguettes 😋
We had a couple of hours between flights home so managed to squeeze in a quick peek at Saigon (Grab is their Uber and makes it so easy) along the walking street Nguyen Hue, more dragons (we were there over lunar new year which is a huge Asian celebration and holiday), and you take your life into your hands crossing the street even more than the rest of Vietnam!
That’s about the size of it. The best part being quality family time, of which we can never get enough @pashakovalev ☺️🧒🏼👧🏽🇻🇳
