Irene suggested that we took a photo of our view from home in case we didn't always have a room with a view here and sure enough.... check out next post....

Tomorrow we have an early start for the drive north west to the border with Cambodia.

Next post will include photos of Cu Chi Tunnels visit and today's visit to the Mekong Delta.

We had been warned that some hotel rooms in Vietnam don't have windows and this was one.

Last night we had dinner in a revolving restaurant. The menu was the most extensive I have ever seen. It included animals I don't eat and those which I would - well, I would not have eaten the parts offered!!!!! Snake head spring rolls, chicken's feet with rice, turtle stew, frogs, snails and the prestigious bird's nest not to mention shark fin soup.

I settled for Spring Rolls but hadn't reckoned on ten!

The former Hotel de Ville now a government building.

After The Rain - Chaos resumed.

As there is often doggy meat on Vietnamese menus we called this little fellow Lucky.

At last someone older than me!

With 64% of the 84 million people being under 30 and everyone on our tour younger than me it was reassuring to find this lady. Estimated DOB 1869.
