| Jumping for joy in Saigon...er Ho Chi Minh City |
This little cooler and a few chairs was a legitimate cafe
|
Some bike traffic
|
And a little more
|
The dramatic look off in the distance pose
|
Drinking some Vietnamese beer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| They brought out a lot of stuff we didnt order, then charged us |
But the eating was good, even if we didnt know what it was
|
More of the bike traffic - bike buffs would have a hay-day here
|
This is shot from a bicycle taxi of sorts, they call it a Cyclo
|
Another shot of the same stuff
|
This was some sort of local god - anyway they were praying to it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| A beautiful old temple in what they call Chinatown |
This was an incredible fruit stand that also had lots of fish
|
Drinking coconut milk the way it should be - fresh and less than 50 cents
|
I got Ami this hat at Hong Kong Disneyland
|
On the back it says "JAPPY"
|
The last picture of the stash before I had to shave for my woman
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| There is that award winning smile |
Stroking Uncle Ho's beard a little
|
This was a big church left over from Vichy rule |
Jumping for joy was a theme of ours |
Despite its incredibly shabby exterior, the coffee was the best I have ever had.
|
At the American war museum
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This was a left over tank, don't know if it was american or russian
|
A gross abandoned prison cell they used during the war |
More of the prison
|
Ami goes to take a look
|
At first glance the cell is already creepy with only this slot as a window
|
But if seeing this inside doesn't scare you what will
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| A shot of me looking out |
Now with more light
|
We were so impressed by the sheer number of mopeds and bikes |
A motion shot
|
See what I mean
|
Uncle Ho propaganda
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Some of the night lights of Ho Chi Minh |
Lizards on the hotel walls was a common sight
|
But before we knew that we shot some photos
|
Ami's impression of an asian??? I dunno...
|
Ami as an american...again I only speculate
|
More in the bicycle cab
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This dude biked us all around the city, all day for under 20 bucks |
Praying in the temples
|
This place just reeked of incense
|
We got to light some too and say prayers |
I don't remember anyone else being here - who took the picture |
More of the ornate decorations - even more than China
|
