We said goodbye to Nha Trang as we returned to the airport and hopped aboard a Vietnam airlines flight to Ho Chi Minh city, the flight took about 45 minutes.
As soon as we landed we could feel the rise in temperature and humidity, we were collected by a young guy who zipped through the City streets. We thought that Hanoi traffic was crazy well HCMC is just pure barmy.
We checked in to the Harmony Saigon hotel had a siesta, a shower and then hit the mean streets of Ho Chi Minh city. As soon as we reached our first port of call, the Glow skybar, the heavens opened and it poured down. We managed to find some shelter in the Glow and as soon as it stopped raining we managed to take some good photos of the City's skyline.
We then searched for a place to grab a bite to eat, we were turned away from our first choice because they had a private party under way. We then happened upon the BBQ garden and asked two Americans who were leaving how the food was, they said it was fine but you had to cook it yourself at the table.
Sadly it turned out to be the poorest meals we have had so far on this trip, still there was enough spring rolls, rice and tiger beer to fill us up, by the way, they charged us for extra paper napkins, How wierd is that.
