Welcome to Saigon...!

(aku pun mo buat lah blog about my trip...)*please don't follow wat we did...:P we are bunch of happy go lucky heavy eaters armed with printed out guidelines and lonely planets and dictionary that was left in our hotel room)

ok ok... here goes..

we booked our flight about almost a year ago...it was like one of our many dreams to travel together...!!

DAY 1
 we started our journey with meeting point at LC-CT...maribrown..!! (siapa punya idea lah tu..??)

checkin in....

ready to fly...!!

sky and cloud was awesome....memang ada perasaan lain if you travel with your besties and crazies friends....n.lemak air-asia pun boleh jadi rebutan...!!

Ho Chin Minh City

Greeted by miss Saigon...
baju wajib di mana2 negara kami step...


tokey taksi....
after months of planning and reading guidlines....as usually we broke every simple rule...guideline was walk straight turn right go up stairs take taxi name vinasun....!! (agaknya terlampau gairah n taksub hehehe) we walk turn right and went to taxi counter....!! :P as for fare...and was told USD 10... hantam aja lah...!! (baru terpikir dalam lonely planet cakap fare is 100,000 dong (RM1.90) kahkahakhakaha...kita bayar USD 10 ngoks...bongoks...!!! ( see i told you we broke the rule...)

when we got off the taxi (forgot the name of the company)...there was no sign of NGOC LINH HOTEL (pronounce ngok len..!) the taxi man pointed to a dark back alley...!! omygosh i was thinking...apa punya hotel ni ...!!


after being greeted by a young boy name Ti (tia tau spell) we were on the right track...Ti spoke english..even though most of the time misinterpret the question.....after checkin in we decided to jalan2 cari makan...


Ti writting details of our passport...! (i sent for you..?? inside joke)

we made our way to ben Thanh market...(fuh kira hebat lah kami..jalan2 sendiri....)

meal pertama yang terdiri dari pada siput...! beef....fish soup and watercrest (yg nama sebenar KANGKUNG...!!!) we were malaysia sejati...so have to eat rice...kena bagi rice tapi teda spoon..!! so aku akui..di malaysia aku tidak pakai hand  utk makan tapi di vietnam aku guna jari jemari...! (mau cakap tangan tapi mesti ada org bahan aku nanti kan...)


apa ko minum tu pong...??  nah nah..!

let's call it a nite....di iringi dengan bunyi tongkang berlayar...!!

Moral of the Day:
1.Sila lah ikut guide lines utk tidak rugi..tapi kalau korang mo macam kami berlagak kaya sila lah ikut hati bila bertindak :P...
2. Org vietnam jarang kelihatan makan nasi putih...!
3.Saigon byk makanan berbentuk siput...(aiii like...ada org masih owe me a bowl of siput)
4. BIA is bloody cheapsss...chip...chip...!
