| 130,000 VND for 2 bowls of Pho and 1 beer from a street vendor. About $5 US for dinner. You can tell we liked it and you can tell we didn't eat the chilis :-) | View from breakfast from the roof of our hotel, Hotel Bloom Saigon, in District 1. | Construction cranes, like every other big city. | Similar design to a gorgeous building in Kuala Lumpur. | Streets are quiet on a Sunday morning. | ||

| Looking down on a park nearby. | Lunch - Pho soup again. Can you tell we like this dish? | Chicken Pho this time. | Coke can has CNY decorations too. | As we walk through a "wet market", a pair of rats scurry away | ||

| They are big and fat. | Rat is barely visible in the shadows this side of the blue cylinder. | Street cleaning crews in the late evening (about 10pm) | Traffic lights shows 33 seconds of green remaining, scooters can turn right. | Scooters can turn right on red, cars can't. | ||

| Minion wind-up toys, for Annie, in the street markets. | Selfie with Saigon evening traffic. | Sweet rice dessert. 30,000 VND if you speak vietnamese, 60,00 if you don't (really). Still, that's about $2.50 US. | Different colors are different flavors. | Scoop up some, add sugar and what looks like powdered coconut. Bob likes it, too sweet for Sue. | ||

| Typical street vendor | A lot like Cambodia. | ||
