On to Saigon
Entry 11 of 27 | show all | print this entry |

8 hours by bus to Saigon, including 2 river crossings by ferry. In the evening we took a cyclo tour of Saigon being driven around on bikes with mopeds flying either side of us taking in the sights. Saigon looks quite modern and glitzy. Architecturally and geographically the whole place is very French, reminds me in many ways of Paris.
Tonight was the final night of the of the first part of my tour, of the 11 only 5 will go on the the next part. Spent the evening in a great restaurant, we ordered beef and prawns which we cooked for ourselves at the table. The prawns were brought out live. The waiter removed the central nervous system (so they wouldn't feel any pain so he said) and we put them on the BBQ still wriggling and jumping around.
