Today was a culture day. We hit the museum of History first which contained many interesting things from vietnamese history. The rain delayed our visit to the Re-Unification palace but we still made it. We joined a guided tour of the palace which was very informative. We then headed off to the War Remnants museum which was totally shocking. With many many pictures of the horrors of the war it was a very disturbing few hours and none of us left feeling good. Some incredible photos were on show in the galleries, all with captions describing when they were taken and by who. I'm getting goosebumps just thinking back.

After some more street food we showered again and headed out for some drinks and to allow Mark and Dale to watch the Champions league final.
