Back in Saigon

We ate at our favorite restaurant Nha Ngon, with Nick and Karla.  Spent the day at the CuChi Tunnels, and celebrated Karla’s birthday at Cuc Gach Quan (10 Dang Tat, Tan Dinh, Quan 1, Saigon).  Apparently Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt ate there previously.. The night before Karla’s birthday, the four of us went out for drinks at the Caravelle Hotel, up on the rooftop with a great view of Saigon at night.  This was where journalists during the war used to hang out.  They even have a drink called Journalist Juice.  The following night after Karla’s Birthday dinner, the four of us went to a bar/club called Apocalypse Now.  It was not as fun as the previous night since we did not get to talk or really hang out, as we were greeted and befriended by two guys from Australia.  They were over the top friendly, and we weren’t sure what to make of it.  The following day Ryan and I took a day trip down the Mekong, which was quite relaxing.  It was a nice way of ending our Vietnam trip before leaving to Singapore.
