e’s favorite drink: lemon juice.

To say it is hot here is probably to make the understatement of the year. This might be a slight exaggeration as I am usually hot 80% of the time. But, it is still hot here. And this is the good time to come. I have been told Feb-April is ideal Hoi An weather, before really hot, hotter, and excruciatingly hot comes round, followed by hot and wet, really hot and really wet, and then just in time for the holidays: cold and wet. In order to hang on through the day hours, we foreigners like to drink fruity drinks. The smart vietnamese folks are sleeping in their shops during the heat of the day (did i mention they were smart). I, the not so bright one, get by on these lovely homemade lemon juices. Just imagine lemonade, but cold, fresh and perfect, the opposite of hot.
