Arrival in Saigon, Vietnam

We finally arrived in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon)!!! We are in Nam.

We got on the bus at 8pm, stopped for a snack break at 10pm, at 12:45am it was time to switch buses from a sleeper bus to a regular bus. It was about 8am we finally hit the Cambodia border crossing and then into Vietnam. We arrived at 10am.

So here is the bad news, we had applied for our Vietnam visa and they shorted our Cambodia trip by 10 days....like this wasn't bad enough. After we got through into Nam they had only given us 14 day stay unless we want to pay more money to extend our visa. We had paid and applied for 30 days!! Darn country just wants all our dongs.

Vietnam hands down reminds me of China...minus the Pho~ Guess what I ate for lunch!!
