How this guy managed to keep a straight face......
Another shameless side of the city can be seen in the dodgy taxis which are tough to keep tabs on. Pleased to have found a reputable firm 'Vinasun’ I was shocked to see the 200,000 fare we had run up on the meter for a journey that should have cost no more than 25,000 dong. When I got out the taxi I noticed the firm was in fact ...
... a natural than me!! Had a go at crawling through some of the tunnels- was weird. We then came back to the city and had some lunch. Now we are waiting around at the hotel for our bus in a few hours to take us to our overnight train. I'm actually quite looking forward to it. The beds apparently haven't been washed as ppl would have just got off- so thank god for my silk sleeping bag liner. Will update when in the next civilized place- send me emails so I know everyone elses news! xxx
... and pedestrian only pavements! There are literally hundreds of scooters on every road, some parked up covering all the pavement and most whizzing past at breakneck speeds. No-one walks anywhere here except for the farang foreigners. Crossing the road here is a life-or-death experience every time. Because there are no pedestrians, there are also no road crossings. Combined with the Asian way of only stopping at red lights if you feel like it, crossing ...

... star-speckled blue globe on which is painted the Divine Eye, the official symbol of Caodaism. Cao Dai followers worship Jesus Christ, Confucius, Taoism, and Buddha. It was really interesting to see but still strange to see. i arrived there at noon prayer time. So you'll see in the pictures the hall empty and the filled with followers getting ready and then praying.
After going there I went to Cu Chi Tunnels which is a tunnel network that was used during by Vietnam ...
So after our walkabouts yesterday, we hit up a few museums today, including far too much walking for our very short legs (well, mine anyway).
First stop was the eerie, but thoroughly interesting, 'Reunification Palace' - it was the symbolic site of the old South-Vietnamese government, and the 'Presidential Palace' as it used to be called, was the first landmark to be attacekd by the Revolutionary forces when they stormed the city on that famous ...
