GREETINGS FROM SAIGON

Currently in Ho Chi Minh City, in the Rex Hotel coffee house, using the complimentary internet access.

Not too exciting over here. Should have gona to Hanoi. The weather here is a killer... Mum just wants to stay indoors in the Bingo Club to play jackpot. Haha... and so do I, except that I keep losing... :(

Loved breakfast this morning. Some kind of prawn noodle soup, wantan mee and vietnamese spring roll, plus a cup of iced vietnamese coffee to top it off. Haven't bought much at all. Took loads of pics of the same stuff. will go home and see which ones turn out nice.

Supposed to go shopping but it's way hot. Just thinking of walking out in the sun to get to an air-conditioned place seems tough. It's the last nite. Hopefully we get to go take a drink at our hotel's famous rooftop lounge. It's been fully booked for dinner but after that we can head there for drinks and listen to the life band play...

Been nice the past few days just mummy n me. Looking forward to the next trip alone with Mum already. But I also wanna do a trip alone this year, though it looks like it's not possible already.

Shall head back up to the Bingo club to look for Mummy... and play more jackpot!
