Ho Chi Minh, our first stop in Vietnam!
We were hit heavily with the Viet Cong war education and artifacts of American War Crimes in just two short days. By day three, although the sandwiches were AMAZING, we were anxious to leave. I wrote about it while traveling, feel free to scroll down and read more about it. Overall, I liked Saigon--the "Paris of the East" a lot more than the Northern city of Ha noi, but I will get to that later. Nina and I were still getting to know how the other traveled and little personal quirks, and all in all, I think we did really well together. Like I said, here in HCM, we did a lot of walking and historical sight-seeing, something that would become less and less as the trip went on. We visited the CU-CHI tunnels--built and made famous by the VietCong and stretch across the country and into Cambodia--we saw war museums and learned a little more about Agent Orange after-effects. We ate sanswiches and walked and walked...and walked.
