Viet Nam Day 05 & 06 - Chào Vietnam! (PHOTOS ONLY)


有着脚印两对半 - 《外婆的澎湖湾》


Sunrise @ Mui Ne. Though we didnt really get to see the sun. Nonetheless, one will never get bored of the pour of morning sunray with cooling sea breeze. Sunrise in Vietnam is way earlier than that in Msia/Singapore. Soltis musim dingin?


These two ladies was taking a rest after a whole morning of fishing work, i suppose. In a second photo, they turned around and caught me taking photo of them, giving no expression to the tourist. Hinting that they are so used to, and yet indifferent to the lens already.


Ah. the bowl-shaped fishing boat that we didnt get to try riding it. The rowing guy draws circles using both arms and the other spraying the net on to the sea, forming a big semi-circle.


Playing tug-of-war with the God of Sea, they take turns to be the last man on the rope.


Buffet breakfast with yummylicious Vietnamese cuisines. Argh didnt have the luck to try watermelon pancake roll.


Reading the local newspaper is one of many ways to understand a country's culture.


The groom and the bride looking tired, welcoming their guests.


One of the many same pattern billboards with Uncle Ho's potrait.


This kind of poster that you will get to see it in every town


Cross the bridge, we are now nearer to HCMC.


If i'm not wrong, this is the Museum of Uncle Ho. No, we didnt go in, just passed-by the building on our bus back to the city.


Ben Thanh market in the afternoon


It has thousand over stalls selling all kinds of PIAN (Price-Is-Always-Negotiable) goods.


Then we went to watch the Water Puppet show. Missing it means you have never been to Viet Nam! the brochure says.


Photo with the lay in traditional costume selling the miniature water puppet at VND70,000 - 80,000 each


The stage with the musicians, voice-overs. The theatre was full with tourists with 0 locals. Super impressed by the instruments and the music, and of course the puppets!


Some sort of army roadshow along Le Loi.


5-star area of HCMC, this area you can find art gallery, boutique shops, grand hotels and thousands of people.


Took cab to the airport and had a not-so-friendly ending conversation with the driver. Ugh.


Coincidentally met my primary school headmaster on our way to check-in.


09:20 Viet Nam time. We are flying back to Singapore.




am back.
