DAY 2 : History & Tour

The breakfast.... Since it's a communist country. I can't say anything. But it's kinda tough to find food over there. Though, I still survived ! :D So, breakfast came by the window. I like it since it's a rooftop kind of thing. And it's just fruits and toasts for me. Simple breakfast.


And it's all about Ho Chi Minh history day!!!
BOOOOO! :( I quite no like the second day and I wished to be at Singapore...
However, I still did like a little bit of the adventure on that day :)


So cute and friendly bell-man. LOL. See the tummy!!! HAHAHAHA.
And that's our tour guide. Yeah, speaks english. Pheeewww~

Firstly, we headed to this art&craft place where mostly disabled people did all the arts~ It's really pretty! And all of it were made up of egg shells and pearls. I like it but it was costly~ hehehehe. Soooo... Nope, didn't brought it home. Not of a good use too. LOL.








Nice, right?
Afterwards, to the historic place which took 2 hrs to reach.


Rice fields!!! HEHEHE. Wish I could go on it. And do rice field-ing... -.-

Here we are~
Documentary and then off to see the real boogey traps,tunnels and all those war things.






It's sooo tiny! Hahahha. Vietnamese people are so slimmm~


Lepak ngan soldiers 
Amcm, bro? Tough life, huh? :)


Looks like termit / ant house. But it ain't it yo~
It's human made holes for air ventilation since everything was done in layers and layers of small hidden tunnels/holes. Very clever. And I , at first, thought it was an ant hole. FOOOOOLL! 



U see that hole down there ? It's where the bullet was. That strong tank huh. STEEL. 
Below, is reallllyy scary. hahaha. Wonder what happens if I accidentally fall into one of the holes. LOL.
DIE. IN THE NEWS. CLOSE DOWN HISTORY PLACE, maybe ? hahahaa.








Then, we went to a shooting area where we can experience shooting using real guns. Machine guns, AK47.... blaablablaaaa.... Too bad no sniper. hahaha!
It's cool and hell, loud.

Anddddd.... into one of their small tunnels. Super hot and dark inside.



Yeah, had to duck walk. They really have strong legs and back last time. SALUTE!!

After that place, we were back to Ho Chi Minh City! Not for hotel... but for the museum.
Quite boring..... Since there's something to read along the way (viewing the stuff), it keeps me occupied and ..... gross reading all of them.


Headed to the palace.
Nothing much....

But, this reaaaalllllllyyyyyy woke me up and gotme sooooo excited! hahahaha
It's a reaaaall thing! Elephants' feet!!!!!!!!!!!
I knooooww! COOOL! I WAS DYING TO TOUCH IT!!!
But my mama and bro didn't allow me :( Commeee oonn, break some rules pleaseeeeeee. No one was wandering down there too. And ain't no cameraasssss!

So coooooooooooooooooolllllllllll !
And cute. hehe.


To the church & post office (France building).
Similarly, the Eiffel Tower... It has all those names on the building. For example : Ampere, Volta etc.


And that marks the end of the tour :) YAY!

Oh, anyway.... Lunch was Singapore food! @ Lion City. Bringgggs me back home. Hahaha.
And over there it serves a hearty amount and delicious so-Singapore style.Still, the drink... Please -.-"
