Well, it took from 6:30pm EST on Tuesday until 12:30am (Vietnam time- which is 11 hours later than EST) on Friday, and included a uncomfortable few hours spent "sleeping" on the floor of the Logan Airport instead of a full night's rest at our ... Read more >

Ho Chi Minh City/Saigon

VIETNAM | Tue, 7 Oct 2008 | By katandstevie | Views [772]

We arrived in Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City at around 6am, it appears people aren't quite as early to start in this city as a few hotels we had researched were still closed! We decided to check out a small guesthouse which a guy in Nha Trang had recommended ... Read more >

VIETNAM | Sat, 22 Dec 2007 | By cisoux | Views [1407]

We landed in Ho Chi Minh City at 8 a.m. Vietnam time. The airport was grey and spartan, a cold welcome to a Communist country. But Ho Chi Minh's weather was not cold at all, in spite of our expectations. It was very warm, just ... Read more >
