Ive still got to add photos from Nha Trang - so we are jumping fprward to Ho Chi Minh city. As crazy with motorcycles as Hanoi - just as much fun crossing the road!

Here, we visited the Cu Chi tunnels - the tunnels in which the Vietamese people dug & lived in during the war - amazing to see that they lived in this claustrophobic way - Justin & Neil went down into the tunnel but jo wasnt so stupid! Here we also got tto fire some AK47s which was good fun!

Hi - Well, there's not a cloud in the sky here at the moment - lovely and warm! There's basically a couple of streets where there are lots of guest houses. We stayed in Bui Vien street, Dist. 1. Paying around $10 a night for two with air con, hot water. Hope you have fun! If you get a chance, head up to Mui ne - the beach there is fantastic - a really cool place with kite surfing etc.
