Vietnam - Dam Sen and Motorbikes

Day 19

sunny 28 °C

Today we got up and left for Dam Sen waterpark and arrived there at 11:30. It is similar to Waterbom Park in Bali with more rides but none as scary. We spent 2 hours on the rides before drying off for some lunch. We went swimming some more - the best ride is the Kamikaze and 19m drop straight down. We got pictures taken and sunbaked until it was time to leave at 3:30

The taxi driver took us to a street with shops but there was nothing we really wanted. We headed back home for a shower and a change of clothes. We are going to Brenda's rich aunties house tonight.

We went on our first motorbike ride - of course there were no helmets! We headed to Brenda's aunties house where we unpacked before heading out on the bikes again this time in peak our traffic in the city where we had a unique night time tour of Ho Chi Minh. We stopped for coffee at a restaurant on the river before hopping on the bikes again for another ride. We then stopped to get Pho with the locals - i decided not to have any but did manage to purchase lottery tickets from a midget and an extremely old woman.

It was then back on the bikes to get back home where we slept with sheets for the first time in Vietnam.
