Ho Chi Minh City

We arrived on time (if you consider a 17 hour time change and loss of a whole day 'on time'!) Yet we slept much of the way, and stayed up for a vety full day of touring and eating our way though the old Saigon. The bus ride through streets of streaming scooters is worth the price of admission... better than any video game for sheer close calls and action.

We saw lots of yellow and red decoration from the last days of Tet (New year holiday). I'll ttry to get some pictures, while I still have computer time. We leave for Hue soon. Hopefily more later.

Whatever you do, don't mention your fondness for the great america cinematic hero Chuck Norris.

Glad to know you made it safely--you guys are amazing! I look forward to seeing your "blogotos" (just invented the word). Happy trails.

Hi you two from the sunny East Coast of New Zealand. Hope all is going well and you are having a wonderful adventure.
We are horse riding 400 kms across the Namib Desert from Windhoek to the Atlantic Ocean this year As I do not think you two rode we may hopefully meet somewhere else another time
I haven't worked out how to get into your site yet and I hope this message reaches you both
God Bless
