Day 2: Mekong Delta

We got up at 5am.

Walked to the boat & had a 20 minute ride mostly in the predawn light. It was a little chilly which was actually refreshing. The floating market is a lot of big boats trying to sell things with a few customers (I’m guessing mostly distributors), with quite a few tourist boats and other vendors servicing the bigger boats … for ice, food, and coffee.

Pineapple anyone?

We did three passes and then the noodle lady shows up in her boat & we do get 3 bowls of noodles / pork / veggies for breakfast. It was good, but I’ve had better Pho / Bun Bo Hue that I would prefer.

We then motored back, and went to a live fish market and walked back to our hotel and then did a 3hr drive back to HCM. We’re now waiting in our old hotel for the cooking class to pick us up at 1pm.

 

So you get another post! Yeah! I bet you’re excited!

 

In less than 12 hours we’ll be on a plane.
