Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon)

Ho Chi Minh City (17th to 20th March)

Due to internet problems am only able to upate a minimm of content.



Arrived back in Ho Chi Minh City late on the 17th from Mui Ne. Unable to meet up with Steve & Caroline for Paddy's night (but Caroline got mugged on the way back from the Irish bar at 1.30am - good news nothing lost & they gve chae & caught the guy, some locals helping out).

Very hot & humid weather. First day we visited the Chu Chi tunnels (VietCong tunnels from the war), followed by the War Museum & Reunification Palace. Day two we visted China Town & 3 pagodas & then took some tiem to play with the traffic on the way back! Motorbike hell here!

Day three we take the early moring bus for the 6 hour journey to Phnom Penh in Cambodia
