Vietnam Notes
... traffic flow in the cities featuring a sea of motorbikes.

Everything else went well, collected bags, had them checked joined the taxi queue and we were in ...
Sunny Siagon
... palace and finally the city hall before being dropped back at our hotel.
Both buzzing but exhausted we showered and hit happy hour. We ended up chatting to two Aussie guys and a British couple.
