The Hai Van pass.

We got to experience a pretty special ride from Da Nang to Hue today. The Hai Van pass. A beautiful ride through the mountains on some of the steepest roads yet. We road it for a good hour, which in my opinion wasn't enough. I could have spent the full day there climbing this beautiful pass. Not heavy traffic, but enough to be on alert. Many tight turns. We saw a man and women crash while taking a turn to fast, so youv gotta take this pass slowly. Once out, we had our normal daily problems. Lucas got a flat tire. After 4 hours of driving through some short rain we arrived in Hue. When we got there we found a cheap hostel, and while planning on going to a mechanic that some friends referred us to that we met in Nha Trang, our hostel owner Johnny knew a better guy. We followed  him to his mechanic and he is fixing our bikes up for the night. We got back to our hostel looking for a place to eat and ran into some friends from Hoi An. Hue is nice. Very beautiful city. We're taking the day to relax tomorrow and then we're continuing North. HANOI HERE WE COME.
