After the endless months of anticipation and excitement, we finally landed in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam! It hasn't stopped raining since we've arrived, but that hasn't stopped us venturing out and seeking our first real bowl of steaming Vietnamese pho mmmm... !
We awoke with rumbling stomachs this morning, longing for more bowls of noodlies, so we headed to Ben Thanh Market, where we found a cluster of food stalls in the heart of the market. Folk were luring us in to their stalls with their displays of summer rolls, really fat prawns and mounds and mounds of noodles. We finally settled for a busy wee stall that many Vietnamese people were huddled around, and indulged in bowls of noodles with, what Hanna refers to as 'floating mystery bits.' Yummy, nevertheless!!
We're heading south tomorrow to Tra Vinh, Mekong Delta, where we are excited to explore the floating markets, pretty pagodas and even more thunder storms! See ya there!
