Vietnam

Sandy and I followed Mum and Dad to Ho Chi Minh City for a long weekend. We stayed at Hotel Majestic, a beautiful French colonial hotel overlooking Saigon River.











Drinks on the roof of the hotel overlooking the river.





And breakfast overlooking the river!



Crossing the road in Ho Chi Minh City involves dodging 1 million motorbikes.





Apart from Phil falling sick for 24 hours with food poisoning, the food was great!















Sandy emerging from a real Viet Cong tunnel!



Dad emerging from a tunnel widened for oversize American tourists. The tunnel may have been widened but it was still a horrible eperience crawling through 30 metres of it.



Phil and a real American tank that hit a landmine 33 years ago.



Phil standing in a crater caused by a B52 bomb! It's huge!
