Okay, the Hotel Majestic was majestic. That and meeting Philippe were the highlights of Saigon. Well, the Lunch Lady also. Had a leisurely day yesterday with a great lunch at the Lunch Lady. Thai noodle soup day. Awesome! Then a walk around the park in front of Independence Palace. Then back to the hotel just I time to beat the afternoon rain. Off to have some duck for dinner and in the room early.
Took the bus to Can Tho today. About four and a half hours from Saigon. The rain held off today and the sun actually showed itself this afternoon. Seems like a cool town on the river. A big river. The Hau River, a finger of the Mekong. Took a walk around town and up the river. Kind of touristy, but nice people all around. Just finished dinner by the river from some street vendors of a pretty darn good seafood and mushroom hotpot.
Have chartered a boat tomorrow to take us to a few floating markets and a fruit orchard. Should be pretty cool. Can't wait! Hope the weather cooperates and yes, there are life jackets.
