... is wrestling a Rooster next door", therefore not a dream as I originally thought.
As for Saigon as the elders call it, a chance to grab some culture and history, although bleak. The War Remnants Museum helps to tie in the trip to Hoa's place and our other destinations in Vietnam. Honest and raw, there is plans for a refit. However, the quotes and the ...
... We then went to a street side noodle place for midnight munchies as we'd hardly had anything to eat. We were all exhausted so made our way home.
1st November
A lazy brunch at a converted old opium house preceded a wonder around town. We went to 'Fanny's' a famous ice cream parlor for a huge platter and then chilled out at home.

We grabbed a lift from 'Tin' and 'Wang' the local Xe om drivers who hang out on Natalie's street corner.They ...
... war. That was a few days after my parents herded my 8-year-old butt onto the back of a US Army Hercules plane that took off from Saigon's Tan Son Nhat airport and i was on my way to plant my roots in the greatest country in the whole wide world: Canada.
I feel like singing the national anthem right now but 1) I dunno all the words and 2) i gotta type faster and get out of here because the guy at the hotel reception's going to drive me bonkers ...
... when accompanied by Saigon green beer.
HCM was very quirky, we walked around a lot, through the pretty park where there was so much going on - badminton, aerobics and general crowds just getting together and having a good time. We visited the massive market, but managed not to buy anything (first time for everything).
We also spent a day visiting the war crimes museum which was very very depressing. It really hits home the atrocities ...

... war reporters. Finally we ended with a reproduction of the torture facilities used on Phu Quoc island. All together now: "WAR! Hurgh! What is it good for? Absolutely nothing!"
Don't get me wrong, the museum is awesome and you have to visit it if you are in Saigon, but we weren't exactly doing cartwheels of joy and high fiving by the time we came out.
... br>After that was Hue where unfortunately I started to feel a bit poorly and it seemed that the rest of the group were suffering at one point or another too. There we visited the citadel which was built for defense purposes, though the weather was unbearable hot and it was hard to appreciate the architecture and sights.
The next day it is more motorbiking fun though this time we were being driven along the paddy fields and stopping by in villages to ...
... the longest estimate we'd received was 8.5 hrs, the usual ridiculously inaccurate guesswork/lying to your face, however you prefer to look at it.
After stopping 4 times on the journey, all of which were a total waste of time seemingly designed to stretch out the working day of the driver, we arrived in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) a grand total of 9 hrs later.
