Our last day in Ho Chi Minh City today. Actually, we should have gone on a sleeper train last night to Nha Trang, but plans have had to be changed due to the train tracks being flooded. Also Nha Trang is a mess due to storms and flooding. So, we're now skipping Nha Trang and flying to Hoi An - it's only cost us an extra $25 each so that's not so bad.

At least it's a private mini-bus Our tour leader warned us that we'd be on a very bumpy road for an hour, which is a short cut. "Short cut"!? How can it be when we were going about 20mph for an hour down a dirt track that is for locals with their ox carts? Surprised the locals didn't attack the mini-bus for using and wrecking their road.
