Pho 2000
Pho = noodle soupWe took an early flight to Ho Chi Minh City ( previously called Saigon) We arrive at the hotel at 12. Ning took us to the Pho2000 noodle bar for lunch and then we visited the market which sold cheap clothes and yummy sweets.
At 4pm Ning took us on a tour of the city for an extra $2usd. We fist visited the war relic's museum which was really shocking. There were images of the war through the whole building and left over guns and bullets. In the courtyard there were some tanks and US planes. We also saw the disgusting images of the tiger cages where VC were tortured. It was a barbed wire cage. The whole museum left me very sad and feeling sick.
We then visted the building where the peace contract was signed, a church and the old central museum.
We ate dinner at a street side vendor where somehow I ordered noodles with extra rice ( not sure how they heard this ) but i ate it anyway. I had an amazing ice cream at Fanny's ice cream shop and then stayed on the internet too late.
