We flew from Phnom Penh to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam late today landing 9.30 pm. Our transfer car was waiting and whisked us straight to our hotel, Liberty Central. We are situated on the 12 floor with a magnificent view of the river, the superb pool and spa are outside on the hotel roof gifting you the opportunity to enjoy the amazing views of the city and river far below, whilst sun bathing or taking a dip. By far the most luxurious room of the trip but equal...

We had a car waiting for us at the airport and twenty minutes later we arrived at our hotel. We were very warmly received by our hosts and nothing is too much trouble for them...

On our second and last day in HCMC we could not pass up the opportunity to visit the War Remnants Museum, again we decided to walk and on route had to pass over a few very busy roads. Taking Sandra's hand and using my self taught line dancing skills I side stepped us over to the otherside, obviously keeping Sandra between me and the traffic. Nearing the museum I negotiated with a street vendor to purchase a Vietnam war Chinese field cap, after several hour's of ...
