ha long bay!We got to the port around 11 and off the ship at 12ish and headed to the tailor shop to make an appointment to get dresses made! Lunch at a local restaurant then we went shopping at a local market.
Ho chi minh is beautiful!! I really was very impressed with how nice it is! The port is a ten minut walk to where all the shops and restaurants are so its really convenient.
Even though I know I am not here to shop, I can't help it in vietnam because they have everything! And its all so cheap!! They have north face stuff galore so I got a backpack and a fleece for a gift.
Facebook is banned in vietnam but I am able to access it on my phone which is cool.
The first night we went to a place called lemon grass for Naomi's bday and then out to a dance bar. The first place we went to seemed like one of those crazy techno clubs you see in europe. It was mostly locals and a little too intense for us so we ended up going to another place that was a perfct mix of sas students other foreigners and locals. It was so much fun and the time passed so quick. when we realized it was 315 we panicked a bit cause alicia and I had flights at 630 to hanoi and hadn't packed yet.
