Hannah and Catherine's adventure comes to an end
Our last stop was the financial capital of Ho Chi Minh. I had managed to find this cute little hostel in the backpacker district 1 called ngoc thao. When we first arrived and were taken to this little alleyway I thought hmm, where the heck are we. But this alleyway turned out to be a hidden gem. Crammed full of great street food and nail bars. We had reached heaven again! On our first day we went to the war remnants museum after a morning getting our nails done. It was a really good and interesting museum but so harrowing to learn about the cruelty of the vietnamese war. That night we grabbed a cheap beer on the street then an early bed.
Day two we were up early to do a half day trip to the cu chi tunnels. The tunnels were themselves very interesting but the sheer amount of people there spoils the experience. I didn't make it through the tunnels as my claustrophobia got the better of me. Before long the trip was over and we headed back to base camp. Then the sad goodbye...
I managed to bundle Hannah on the local 152 to the airport then I was all alone again. So our adventure comes to an end and I only have five days until I myself am homeward bound...
