Eleven countries note-Ho Chi Minh MAR 15 2009

Written on the front

In the United States bears (Mui Ne) on the peer of a joke, "here's scenery and many countries have similarities, for the first time abroad you will earn a", with this title.

As a result of last night's origin, we didn't go to any place, but obediently at Hotel to meet the coach in the evening.

Today's weather is still nice, sunny to ignore the forecast before Indy.

Later we found that after two days of weather forecasts are thunderstorms, but the day all turned into a fine (for parts) that we back away poncho completely useless, but also walk around the Sun.

Check out at noon, the luggage in the hotel, beginning around Ho Chi Minh, Nanjing Road, Huaihai Road.

By the way, found the Raiders, on ice cream Kem Bach Dang, store it in the DL Le Loi junctions each side has a home, pretty good read. Coconut ice cream tastes good, eaten still digging the coconut meat, some of the durian is sweet. Ice cream shops around the many shops, some sell homemade goods, price is not cheap.

Dinner in hotel nearby PHO24 solution, fast-food type of PHO restaurant, taste reactive.

After playing to Van five old street Sinh Café catch 20: 30 to go to the NHA's sleeping bus.

Ho Chi Minh's TAXI is 10,000 shield/km. And here's TAXI in addition to the normal four-seater, there are a number of a row can take five or six people.

Sleeping is a toilet for the Bus, the bus after a bottle of water.

Seat is basically a more spacious, last row other than the five-seater, the equivalent of sleep, is slightly larger will be very crowded. The original booking time nor and the results of our instructions, two more than a metre eight fellow stayed well.

All Ho Chi Minh is a suitable place for a walk in a trance, and Shanghai some like, but more laid-back.

Not too many attractions, the city is just a kind of style. And local services employees quite friendly, at least I have not encountered snobbish or indifferent.

In Ho Chi Minh, you will often hear Japanese in the Dungeon.

Don't know why there is a considerable number of tourists from Japan, so many shop assistants can speak Japanese. So there is nothing in here should exchange, English, Japanese, French will have a suitable for you.

As regards public security, urban centre seems to be OK, maybe it was luck, not encountered many mix reflects the speed looting and theft.
