Today I feel crook as! Hoover told us we all would at some point in the trip when our bodies started adjusting and even though it was uncomfortable spending so much time on the bus feeling like dying, I'm kinda glad my sick day was the one we spent mostly traveling and not doing many activities.
We had an egg breakfast with Vietnamese coffee this morning, I normally hate coffee but this was made with condensed milk and was really strong...so good!
On the bus we played seven little words- my new favorite iPhone app, you should download it!
We also had "song of the day" Hoover plays dynamite- taio Cruz every morning and makes us dance so that when we go home it will stick in our head and remind us of the good times.
We stopped at the cu chi tunnels on the way back to Ho chi Minh.
I got inside a hidden trap door the Vietnamese used in the war to hide from Americans I could fit but it was quite confined, I couldn't imagine getting down there decked out in army gear, not to mention it was SOOOOO hot and muggy!
We had a look at the boobie traps which were all very brutal, mostly hidden holes in the ground with sharp bamboo sticks poking up and the tips dipped in poison... not something I'd want to stumble upon while trekking through the rainforest.
16 new people joined the group tonight when we returned to the motel, Hoover had organized a group dinner to meet them but I was still dying so I went straight to bed.
I realized that when I'm in a wifi hotspot I can use my heytell and sent holly a quick message, luckily she was out for coffee with the ladies so I got to chat to everyone :) I was a little upset to hear North lost on the weekend but I've put it down to lack of support due to my absence.
