Re: Vietnam - HCM (Thread 3)
6. Mounting a heroic attempt to find the best money changer in the Ben Thanh market, realizing that the stalls are (horrors) not arranged in numerical order. Meanwhile, thirty stalls, all selling the same T-shirts, harass me with 'You want T-shirt?'
7. Apparently, when I take a girl home after KTV, I don't actually take her home. Instead, I'm supposed to wait for her to appear at my hotel room later. Wait and wait until I decide that I must have been fooled, so I go to sleep. Except that I can't sleep because of the numerous coffees, so I watch some MTV. Finally, at almost 3 am, there is a knock on my door. In her conservative clothes she looks totally different, so I rip off her clothes. Much sexier. We have some feisty good sex.
8. Drinking 50c beers beside the road. Saigon beer is light and bubbly with just a drop of sweetness, which is very refreshing for a sunny afternoon as happy kids play and scream next to me.
