20 March 2008

1 Day Mekong Delta US$8





6.30am: On the streets. Wanted to try the street food but better not risk. I still had a few more days here! So in the end, I settled for a strawberry shake and watched the Vietnamese go about their daily biz. The shake was beri nice! (10,000D)

8am: Started on our trip. The ride was quite serene and the water erm...unclear. We reached the coconut candy 'factory' and bought 2 packs (40,000D) which C devoured them at a speed that was quite alarming. I have not met a guy who can consume sweets at such a fast rate!

I loved the boat ride. Made me think of Taman Negara only that this was slower and more tranquil. By the time we reached the city, it was 6ish.

8pm: We decided to have dinner @ Ngon Restaurant - 138 Nam Ky Khoi Nghia after the recommendation from C's guide/notes. I like it. This place was patronised by locals and tourists alike and the food was scrumptious. Price is all right, considering the ambience and all.


Ended the night with some night city scenes.
