WITH AN HOUR TO GO before the taxi picks comes, and takes me to the Danang train station, I wanted to squeeze in these last impressions from Hoi An. This is a somewhat haphazard collection of pictures but then these hit some notes that the other postings, to this place, may have missed. The next images will be from Hanoi in a few days.
