Dinner was served on the ship, ala carte style, seafood was abundant there... unfortunately, my pictures didnt turn out well ... I hope my frens' cameras do better than mine...I have yet to see them... Anyway, I would say, the experience being there on the ship while it 'sailed' along the Saigon River was indeed special and spectacular...
the entrance to the ship...red carpet all the way...
one of the dishes we ordered...
steamboat vietnamese style...
The next day, it was time to say sayonara to Ho Chi Minh City. Before we left, I snapped a picture of the hotel which we had stayed for 3 nights.
Duc Vuong Hotel... 24 hour security at night..

ReplyDeleteI went Ho Chi Minh in May, and I spent S$500 for 5 days! I stayed in a budget hotel (Blue River hotel) in district 1 where the backpackers' area is, one room per night costs USD20. Hmm, do you like the Vietnamese food? I don't really like, find the food rather plain.
