Vietnam

May Holiday in Vietnam

Most of you know, ok about 2 of you know that I went to Vietnam during the May Holidays. I have been looking forward to this trip for about almost 2 months. It was pretty awesome seeing my friends Jeff and Anthony (who flew to Vietnam from LA). We met at the airport since my flight flew in an hour after theirs and started our trip with the usualy handshake/hug followed by the "long time no see", and right after that the ragging and mama jokes quickly followed as we got into a taxi.

We checked in our hotel in district 5 near the "china town" of ho chi minh city. We were all pretty tired so we went to sleep. The next morning we woke up and headed out to do a lil sight seeing, shopping and EATING!!!!

mmmm some good banh xeo at "Banh Xeo 46A"

spring rolls and peanut sauce

Tasty eggrolls mmmm

Driving around town...well not driving but sitting in a taxi and going around town we saw that the vietnamese love to live, eat, sleep, drink, whatever on their motorcycles. They use their motobikes so efficiently its crazy what they would do if they had a regular car.

Here is an example of how to use a motor bike efficiently

At night after a long day of shopping here is me and anthony eating once again.

Me enjoying some shrimp on sugar cane and my usual coconut, i had at least 15 coconuts during my stay in vietnam... something about sipping on a fresh coconut that makes me feel so re-LAX ed if u know what i mean..haha i heard it helps with the digestion system as well

Next blog will be about the trip to the Cu Chi tunnels and my family down in the south country side
