Saigon

We had a tedious five hour bus ride to Saigon, during which, I was intermittently spooned by a hairy Russian guy.
We got into the big city as the sun went down and the bus station is a convenient two blocks from our hotel. Nevertheless, the first taxi driver to fill his car with our bags tried to rip us off for more than ten times what we paid to the next guy who was a little less crooked.
We checked in, had a quick swim in the roof top pool and ate dinner (surrounded by a posse of Lily admirers) before coming to this park. At nearly 9pm, it's teaming with kids, not surprising considering it was 34 degrees all day!
The kids are burning off energy and we're enjoying a nice cold beer in a park with a nice tropical feel. We're looking forward to exploring the city tomorrow.
