Sorry for the lack of blogging this past week. seems like the days go so quickly, yet our departure isn't getting any closer. we are trying to set things up to leave on the 25th, which would have us arriving...on the 25th. but still have to get Maiya's visa back from Singapore in a timely manner first.
In the last couple days we visited a couple museums. the military museum. mostly in Vietnamese so we couldn't really understand anything, and there were a couple of schools visiting. Maiya seemed to be the main attraction. It's cute at first but its so freaking hot, it gets tiring very quickly.
Next we saw the War Ruminants Museum. No air conditioning here either, and it was extremely busy, but mostly with westerners, who I have realized are not as into babies as the locals. Which was fine with us. For anybody who comes to Ho Chi Minh this is a must see. There are a couple different sections, the first is about the truths. So told really from both sides and how they saw it. Then it goes on to tell it more from the North's side but told as if it was on behalf of all Vietnamese. Anyway something to experience. Very graphic.
Will post some pictures later tonight (mid-morning). Providing everybody is up to it, we are going to try and get to the silk and quilt stores today. We also want to check out Reunification Palace in the next couple of days.
C ya.
