Ho Chi Minh - Flying Rice

This morning we slept in before catching a taxi to the bus station We caught a bus into saigon where we attempted to find a travel agent who sold rail and air tickets after no luck we caught a taxi to a well known backpackers area where we found such a place. However in the end after an hour of trying to communicate with the travel agent we ended up booking a bus journey where we could get on and off wherever we liked.

We then headed off to lunch at Lotteria - a local hamburger joint. We then headed off to Ben Thanh Market for a little while before heading home for a shower as we are being taken out for dinner. We caught a taxi to Rich Aunties house before hopping on the motorbikes to head off.

The restaurant was 1/2 an hour away but it was great fun. The restaurant is known as the flying rice restaurant- the waiters throw and catch your rice before serving it to you. The meal was fantastic. We rode back into Saigon and had coffee and ice-cream at a riverside restaurant. We got driven back to the other Aunty's house where we soon fell asleep as we have a big day tomorrow.
