I explore the side streets, so much to feed to the senses.
Locals playing chess in the small cafes, small tailor shops, street barbers, mobile vendors with fruit or other foods, ice cream style music plays when they pass. Saigon has a lot to absorb. I find the mopeds fascinating. With so many of them, the pavements are either full - boxes, parked vehicles, people, or used as a way of driving the wrong way down a street. I've got used to it but road crossing in Saigon is an odd experience. Walk out with hundreds of mopeds slowly and let them drive round you. Then carry on moving without rushing. I test out the pool on the hotel roof and sit enjoying the view over the entire city.
I go back to the night market, grabbing a coffee and people watch.
I head back to the same area as before. Rene is meeting a friend for dinner and we plan to meet afterwards. I see my driver from last night and chat for a while. Obvious question, where was he at the end of the night. I get the impression he forgot. I grab some dinner at an Italian Rene reccommended. Vietnamese style and is tasty whilst I sit at the street side. I had wanted Pho but so hot and busy, it's a tasty choice and will do. I explore a bit more but am shattered from last night. I call it quits as I am up early tomorrow for my flight.
