We arrived at Tan Son Nhat International Airport (Terminal 2) at around 2:00a.m. It was a smooth flight yet we are all tired and sleepy. The van hasn't yet arrived but the coordinator was already there waiting for us. They don't talk to us too much because they couldn't speak English well. He just had a little talk with Geraldine, the one who booked the van transfer from Airport to our hotel/dorm.
The dorm was closed when we arrived and we seen two Vietnamese waiting outside the dorm. When we noticed that there is a door bell at the gate so we tapped, the two ladies reacted like they were surprised. I guess they didn't know that there is a doorbell there. We waited for like fifteen minutes there before the door was opened. A guy came out and he looks like he just woke up. We were like "Whew! thank God someone heard us!" The guy's name is Nam, he was like a care taker of the dorm. We were supposed to be six of us there so we booked for a family room but there was no available room at that time. So, Nam said he could give us two rooms for the meantime so we could all get rest for the night then we'll settle the problem the next morning. Then we decided that Raymond can get the other room alone and all three girls can sleep to another room. We took the room with the bigger bed. Anyway, as we were settling down to get ready for bed, we all felt hungry and was thinking of going out to get food because we didn't managed to bring food with us. When we checked the time, it was already three in the morning and we need to get up by 6:30 for our City Tour!
Early breakfast! We really can't understand the what the lady said about the name of this meal but it's very tasty and it just costs 30,000VND (PhP 69.47).
First stop,
Vĩnh Tràng Temple
Second Stop!
Mekong River
One of the longest river in Asia!
One of the most fun thing in travelling is that you not only get to see the beauty of nature but also the beauty of other people. You will know what I mean if you see the next photo! haha (wink)
Oiiiii I'm just appreciating the beauty in other people's features! haha I didn't get to know his name because I was too shy to even talk to other tourist. You will see how "gwapo" (good looking) he is on this video I took while these Vietnamese play their country's music.
After our awesome visit at Mekong River and Vĩnh Tràng Temple, we had our dinner at this restaurant a little far from Benh Than Night Market. While enjoying our tour, we met sweet pretty Filipina, Ms. Helen.
It has been an awesome day for all of us. Good thing the sun is up and it didn't fail us to see the beauty of nature.
Thank you Papa God!
This has been your girl trying to make a difference in my life and in the life of other human being, if they'd let me. haha

On a more serious note, it looks like you and your friends had a great adventure in Vietnam in spite of the language barrier. Wasn't anyone of you mistaken as a local? I missed this Mekong Delta part when we went there years ago. My friends wanted to see the sand dune so that is where we went. You are lucky to have gone through the Mekong River. Ain't there crocodiles there? 😃
Yay! Thanks for the feature! I really thought he noticed me checking up on him haha! Well, I guess there was no crocodile at that time we passed the Mekong..
