Saigon, AKA Ho Chi Minh City

After we left Nha Trang last night we had a 6 hour overnight train to Saigon. We arrived at 4:30am and went to the Hotel to drop our luggage off. A short breakfast later and we were off to the Cuchi Tunnels just outside of the city. This was a pretty interesting trip. The Cuchi tunnels were what were dug out by the Vietnamese during the war to elude the US forces. While we were there we were able to go down into the tunnel and experience it. Funny that they actually dugout the tunnel more so that westerners were able to fit into them. I didn't do the whole 100 meters of the trip. I had to get out early because they were just way to small for a guy like me and they were crazy hot. I did enjoy the history and seeing the B52 bomb craters. The highlight of the trip, however, was getting to shoot an AK-47 with live ammo. Crazy Cool. We leave early tomorrow morning for the Mekong delta where we are going for an overnight homestay. Because of that I wont post tomorrow but as soon as I get back to tell everyone all about. I hope everyone is doing well.
Peace
