Hoi An Shopping

We rode our bikes to town to find a tailor shop.

There are so many tailor shops in town it is hard to decide where to get clothes made.

Charlie getting his silk shirt fitted, about $32.

Silk lanterns shop.

Rows of silk cloth.
Jane getting measured for a silk blouse.

We were asked to have dinner with the family that operated the Hoang Tu Homestay where we were staying. We decided to buy flowers to give them to the family. As we were buying the flowers a woman asked us if she could help. She told us that we were buying flowers to honor the dead. She helped us return the flowers and get our money back. Then she helped us pick out the flowers and choose a sweet treat we could bring to dinner.
