Ho Chi Minh City Tour


We were leaving late Sunday afternoon, but we were able to squeeze in a half day tour of the city before we left. I suggested ditching the tour and going for another massage (or 2), but herself didn't buy that!

We got the same guide as the previous day (above, facing camera), but unfortunately our half of the tour was the worst half. The things we most wanted to see appeared to be in the afternoon segment. We should have checked beforehand, I guess, but it was too late to do much about it when you're on the way to the first stop. Mercifully, the city traffic was relatively light on the Sunday morning and we were in a large bus, so no problems there!

Cue another round of fairly uninteresting stops at temples and craft shops and the like. Interestingly, Buddha seems to have been on Slimfast in Vietnam as he doesn't seem quite as rotund as other Buddhas I've seen (and shock, horror, been in!).

We should have gone back for another massage!
