The part of Ho Chi Minh I was staying in was a big party spot. During the Vietnam war it was the part of town given to the Americans and it still has leave-of-duty atmosphere. The best part were the bars that consist of plastic chairs for small children right on the edge of the street. Bottles of delicious Saigon beer were only 50 cents too!
After a few bottles yesterday morning was a bit rough but I hopped on a bus to the resort town of Mui Ne. The bus was really weird in that all the seats were setup like beds in two layers but it was great for sleeping on the five hour ride. The water is warm and there's plenty of wind so windsurfing and kite surfing are popular here. The place I'm having breakfast at right now doubles as a water sport rental place even. Buying a bicycle didn't pan out in Ho Chi Minh City so maybe I'll surf up the coast instead.
