Trail: Dismounted Hashmobile outside former swimming pool café (Bồng Lai Quán), but now shut down. Chalk talk by Secs. Walked approx. 1 km up sealed Nui Dinh road and turned left onto Di Da Son pagoda access track about 50 metres before steps down to Fairy Stream. Eventually reached pagoda grounds and viewed many religious artefacts before continuing on fairly dense jungle trail, mostly downhill over dead leaves and mud-covered rocks (eloquently described by one relatively new Hasher with a smile: “…challenging but great fun!”). Finally reached ground level and Bồng Lai Quán 2 with its picturesque lake and restaurant (when not raining!), now operated by former swimming pool café management. Total distance ~4km.
Highlights: Picturesque artefacts at Di Da Son pagoda. New Down Down venue Bong Lai Quan 2.
Down Down: Bong Lai Quan lake and restaurant, Nui Dinh street level.
Refreshments: Bánh Pâtesô (savoury pie). Water melon slices, pineapple chunks. Mooncake slices and rice/soy cake courtesy Ms Phuong. Saigon Bia, Revive, softies, mineral water.

Visitors/Returnees welcomed: Royce (relocating ex-Hanoi); Sandal (absent Finland/England), Ms Kim (Vung Tau, knee injury).
