April 15 - Ho Chi Minh City

Happy tax day, everyone!
Wow! What a city...glad we are leaving today. This place is truly something regarding traffic. Thought we'd be in numerous accidents while in a taxi and later while walking. Motorbikes and bicycles abound. It reminds me of the Tour de France!

We took in the Water Puppet show last night and had a lovely dinner at one of the recommended restaurants. we are all becoming braver while crossing streets.

Leaving this morning for our Mekong Delta tour with private car, driver, and guide. accommodations here have been wonderful and we believe our other hotels will be the same.
Weather is hot and humid...back to bad hair days!

Stay well everyone!
