I'm back! Still not 100% but better. So we are now in Saigon or Ho Chi Minh City if you like after a short flight from Hoi An. It's a little bit like Hanoi only the streets are wider and the traffic isn't as bad. We went to the Sheraton that night to go to the sky bar which had a great view of the city. Shame I wasn't allowed to drink though!
The next day we did the Cu Chi tunnels which were interesting but it was really hot and I wasn't feeling too great. I still went through the tunnels though, well the ones I could fit down. Later that day we went on a cyclo tour of the city which was fun but I felt sorry for the 4ft guy who had to peddle me around. Along the way we stopped at museums and other stuff like that which were a bit dull except the war museums which were good. Vietnam has been dissappointing for me but the measles didn't help. Either way I'm not sure it would of beaten Laos.
The next day was a bus journey to Cambodia which would take about 8 hours. Yey.

Natalie So how are you feeling now? I'm glad you're still alive! I've written my Xmas list. ;-) hehe. I fell down my stairs this week and have a black bum but I'm ok. Going for a root canal on weds morning so not looking forward to that. Don't know if I mentioned it before but I have a few holes in my roof so need that fixing too!! How was the really long bus journey? Xx
Tom I'm ok now. Not eating much still. Told you I'm not buying Xmas presents. Really craving a Sunday dinner now. We need gravy. The bus was full of westerners so it wasn't too bad. Just a long way. Having triantulas for tea tonight. Yum. Any goss? X
Nat No goss. Life is very dull here compared to your adventures!! Had a beef Sunday roast last weekend with lashings of gravy and Yorkshire puddings. ;-) dad had 4 and I only got 3!! :( going out for dinner with grandma and grandpa tomorrow (Sunday) to the Red Kite and then to a place near hudds on Monday for dads birthday. Just had car valeted so now all shiny and new!! And you will be buying Xmas presents!!!!!!!!!! :p where are you going after Cambodia? Xx
Judd Shame u were ill cos as u know Vietnam is the best place ever for me & mum. I had the same effect on the cyclo dude. Cu Chi was awesome but I couldnt fit down the holes, unlike ur mother, who was like a rat in drainpipe!! I didnt have 4 Puds! My car is being valeted now. First time its been cleaned in 2012. Town are 2nd and were on TV against Blackpool, winning 3 v 1. Steve kean is sacked. Terry finr £250K n out for 4 wks. No justice for Suarez eh? Love to Rikki xxxx
