Vietnam, 1st and 2nd day

On the first day, after meeting at the airport and after 1 half hour of flight time, we finally reached ho chi minh city. my first impression, the motorcycles!!! they simply do not follow the rules. It's a matter of who dare to go first. Somehow, they will slow down and let you pass first. from the tour guide, mr son, there are 4 million motorcycles.

our first stop, Vietnam-Singapore industrial park, VSIP.


Then we got a bonus of shopping at the Ben Thanh market. Wah, you must really bargain at least to 50% of the price they quote.

On the 2nd day, it's time to go to Cu Chi tunnel. Over there, it's quite a few of hands on activities like crawling through the tunnel, eating tapocia and seeing the making of traps. i'm impressed with Viet Cong's creativity.






after that, it's lunch at minority group village, followed by dance and we also managed to catch pig racing.




After that, dinner and then more shopping at ben thanh night market. This time, we followed the students and helped them to bargain. I think the stallholders don't like us.
