Saigon

I'm a bit overwhelmed by all of this. The city is just absolutely jam packed with people and scooters as far as anyone can see. The air is very dirty and seem to make me feel sick to my stomach after a few hours. That might be why I only ate once yesterday. But that could also be due to the fact that after our first venture out, we cam back around 1230 to clean up a bit and take a little break. I laid down for a 30 minute nap. 1230pm here is equal to 130am in Charleston.

Well, I laid down for that nap, Ryan apparently followed suit and we didn't get up until 10 hours later. Slept through the whole day. Apparently I wasn't over my jet lag like I thought I was. We ended up watching TV and reading from 12am to 6am which is when I came down here to type this.

Today we're going to try and haggle for a better price on our hotel, get some tickets or make it to the Cu Chi tunnels and then get a bus ride out to a resort town on the beach for tomorrow. I think we're gonna post up there for a few days until Matt and Jeremy arrive. I don't really have much of a desire to stay in the city too long. I'd like some fresh air I believe. Anyhow, here are some pictures from the day.
