Safe & Sound in Saigon

Wow - the kids took the day and a half travel getting to Saigon in their stride.  After 2 days in Ho Chi Minh city,  I only have good things to say, and much, much cleaner than expected.  The amount of mopeds here is truly amazing, and crossing the road here with everyone in one piece has left me with a sense of having achieved something.  Tomorrow sees us off to Mui Ne for our first bit of beach relaxation.  We have 4 weeks to make it up along the coast to Hanoi and cross into China, which we plan to do by bus.  When I look at the places we will go past (Nui Dat, Vung Tau, Khe Sanh) it feels like being in a Chisel song ;-)

    Good to hear you guys made it there ok! Normally I would be jealous of the fact that you are about to visit beaches, but it was a scorching 9 degrees here today!

    Wow a whole 9 degrees. Aren't you glad that you are on the way to sunny Brissie. It was 35C here today and was still 31C at 8pm. Sticky too. We are counting down the days. I am glad to hear that the kids are travelling well. Safe journey.
