CITY TOUR
Shandy and V ready for a day in Ho Chi Minh City

Shandy and V with Mr Bang who kindly drove us around the city



Love these ATM's - like old phone booths


Ho Chi Minh himself

The national flag
We make our way to the central market
A quick browse but we decide to save cash and head to the War museum
Clyde our navigator... looking a little confused!
The traffic is a nightmare and crossing the street is deadly!
The War museum closes for lunch - bizarre!

We hit a bar to kill time...

VIETNAM WAR MUSEUM

The museum consists mostly of pictures which tell their own story
And some weapons




These are just a small sample of some of the amazing photography...








We come across a stunning park right in the middle of the city
V enjoying the gardens...

Trying to choose somewhere for lunch...

Crossing another street, great fun!
We hit the backpackers area
A great spot for some local food
V and Shandy are straight into the cocktails


Back to Greg and Angies, and Aiden is happy to see his mom
A long day of sight seeing now to get ready to head out for dinner
MEKONG DELTA
A new day and we make our way out of the city to the Mekong Delta
When you gotta go you gotta go...
Greg and Clyde ready for the adventure
We climb aboard the boat for our tour round this area
The local houses right on the river
Delivering fruit and veg by boat

A beautiful church we passed
Making sweets and goodies from local produce
Our tour guide for the day
This lady shows us how she makes rice paper every day
We are treated to local tea everywhere we stop...
Clyde is a big fan of the peanut brittles...
Genuine snake wine .... no thanks!
Some local arts and crafts in the small markets

This lady was our driver for the day
We stop at an old fruit farm

Beautiful house

They treat us to some fresh fruit
Meanwhile these 2 puppies tuck into their own lunch right next to us
