Vietnam
I've been in Vietman for almost a week, with more than a week left to go. Ho Chih Minh City, or Saigon, was crazy and busy. We took a couple of days to get out and see the Mekong Delta, which was great. We got to tour the famous floating markets.
We are now in a beach town called Nha Trang, but will be leaving on an overnight bus in 2 hours. A 10 hour bus ride will take us to Hoi An. It's supposed to be one of the most historically intact Vietnamese cities. Another bus ride will take us to Hue, of which I know nothing. Then we will spend some days in Hanoi and Halong Bay. All in all I will have spent more than 24 hours on a bus. An ipod, a good book, and frequent naps make the time pass quickly.
I have nothing genius to say about Vietnam. I think it is one of the most unique places I've traveled in. I'll post some pictures when I return home and have my computer again.
It's amazing that when I am at home I can spend a countless amount of time on the internet, but when I'm in an internet cafe, I have a hard time filling up the hour I've paid for. So much pressure. "Um boom ba bay Um boom ba bay Um Um boom ba bay bay pressure pushing down on me..."
