Had a decent night's sleep, after all that travel. Spent the morning at the Ho Chi Minh complex, which includes a mausoleum, Presidential government building, Ho Chi Minh's cars (gifts), houses, House on One Stilt. Who knew that HCM's body was being embalmed in Russia?! Also visited the Museum of Ethnology. We had lunch in restaurant that prepares one dish only. In the afternoon we went to the Temple of Literature, the site of Vietnam's first university and shrine for Confucius. Coincidentally, there was a graduation ceremony and we had a chance to mingle and have some fun. We went to a water puppet show, campy, but part of Vietnamese culture. There are many parks in the City. We saw couples taking photos in the parks to use at their upcoming weddings.
