Hi all,
Just a very quick quick update to say Iwill probably be offline for the next 2/3 days. Get back to Saigon late this eve then out to the Mekong delta on a boat for2 days!
Thnk you for all your lovely emails - will respond when i get back :)
Currently sat in a posh cafe, well posh by their standards, eating some breakie (fresh watermelon, mango andstawberries) , drinking earl grey whilst taking full use of their free internet.
Just abotu to hop onto a rust bucket bus for a trip to the VC tunnels north of here. I dont like confined spaces, so hope i wont freak out when crawling through the tunnels :)
Had the best night so far last night - went to this 5* hotel I mentioned before with Emma. Whilst pricey, it was amazing! The open air swimming pool was on the rooftop surrounded by other high rise buildings and flashing billboards, with the distant sound of the Saigon traffic below. Lots of birds and palm trees - its was simply a little oasis in this mad city! even at night this place is very humid, so the outdoor swimming pool came as a much welcomed relief.
Right, im out of here
Hope all ok, missing you all
