We thought it would be a good idea to start with breakfast there. Hey, how hard can it be! Nobody spoke English and most things were in Chinese not Vietnamese. We ordered blind but seemed to do quite well.
First stop was the herb and medicinal street. Lisa wasn't sure what these things actually were let alone what they cured. Brynley thought they may be suppositories.
We then visited the Thien Hau Pagoda Temple and Quann Am Pagoda Temple.
We all lit some incense and said some special prayers for our families and friends all over the world. (if you win Lotto next week, remember us).
Others were a bit more selfish and said a prayer for their lunch (this pig wasn't so lucky).
This worshiper obviously had a special wish as she has a direct line to God. Now that's my kind of religion.
We then went to the Binh Thay Markets. It was so chaotic and hot it was unbearable. Lisa has traveled throughout China and we have gone toe to toe in the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul but nothing beats this. It was too much and we just had to get out.
We stopped in an Aussie pub for lunch, Phattys, and had a few ales while watching the AFL.
In Saigon some shopkeepers take it very easy.
Wile others work very hard! This guy took off without tying any of it down.
