My first and oldest friend is Sooria. We met on the first day of Standard One in January 1967. Yes 49 years ago and we still meet often for lunch or tea.
Well this year we decided to go on a holiday our very first one. So I booked a 4 days 3 nights trip with Airasiago to Danang and it cost us RM1170 per person with accomodation at the 5 star Melia Danang. You cannot get deals better than that.
We left for Danang on the 12th of August and after a short flight we arrived and checked in to The Melia Danang. This large hotel had beautiful rooms , bars and restaurants and situated at the beach and it was breathtaking. You did not have to leave the hotel at all.
The first day saw us just relaxing in the hotel with happy hours and a seafood barbeque dinner. The Mango Marguerita is a must but the seafood barbeque was not worth it. But my good friend spoke to the manager and we got two meals for the price of one 😂. She is excellent at bargaining.
The second day saw us spending the day in the ancient town of Hoi Ann. A quaint little town by the river rich in culture and history.
On the third day we went for mass at the Danang Cathedral and checked out the local market.
This short holiday was great as it further strengthened our friendship and we planned to celebrate 50 years of friendship next year with a bang hopefully in Greece.
Some pictures of our first holiday together
The room at Melia Danang was great
Chilling by the poolside hat and all
Mass at Danang Cathedral also known as The Pink Cathedral
Happy hour cocktails by the beach is heavenly
