Vietnam Trip

My partner and I recently returned from trip to Vietnam. The plan was to go to:

  1. Saigon
  2. Nha Trang
  3. Hoi An
  4. Ha Long Bay
  5. Hanoi

My partner arrived there 1 week ahead of me, to catch up with her family, and then she spent another 15 days travelling with me.

My ride to Vietnam, the Airbus A380. It is the most comfortable, and spacious, cattle class I have flown.

The bulk of the trip was a much needed holiday. My first night, and the day after, was a rapid acclimatisation period.

Saigon at night. Everyone leans on their car/bike horns. It is used as a proximity indicator for adjacent vehicles.

The local market
A local street market, in Saigon. As one might expect, there is a lot of material on sale, ranging from live fish to veggies, to footwear and clothes, mobile phones, etc.

There is, quite often, and abundance of colour to be found in the simplest of places. We’re still at the market.

Street food.
One of many, many street food vendors. This stand was putting out some intoxicating smells. The going advice, however, is to avoid, unless your body is used to this type of food.
