At the market

We took a cookery class in Hoi An which started with a trip to the market. We felt a little daft at first wearing the traditional Vietnamese hats we were given for the occasion as we did not look quite as groovy as the elegant Vietnamese but soon realised how brilliantly they keep the hot sun off you. Clearly why you still see men and women of all ages wearing them. We were quite loathe to part with them at the end of what was a really fun and excellent class.
