Mekong Delta Tour

Left Saigon/HCMC/whatever on trip into Mekong delta. Visited more places with silly names....

My Tho city has lots of canals & we took a boat trip. Ben Tre is the 'coconut capital' of Vietnam.

Can Tho had an Xmas 'parade' with loads of 20 year old vietnamese riding around on mopeds dressed as santa......Bizarro......Ali then lost the plot and decided to walk herself the 100 metres from net cafe to hotel which resulted in me spending the next hour and something walking the ever darkening and emptying streets looking for her......and she had a map.......The room we stayed at in Can Tho was worth every cent of the 2 dollar it cost.

Visited a trad floating market called Cairang........KerranGGG!!!!

Saw a dead crocodile rotting in the sun at a crocodile farm that was possibly one of the cruelest places I have ever been to (+ I dont particularly like Croc's).....the BIG bear in a tiny metal cage in 40 degree heat near the exit really sealed the deal......Not sure why we were taken there........I R Perplexed.

Sam Mountain views Viet/Cambodia border then Chau doc town and another 2 dollar hotel cell - means to end.
