After another great breakfast, we set out on our day. We walked to a huge indoor market where there are hundreds of tiny stalls of Vietnamese people selling purses, clothes, knock off watches, etc. etc. They spot us instantly and call out "please, Madame. You need this?" After Jacob had some pho (n the 100 degree heat) we set out to the War Remnants Museum. It is four floors of artifacts and photographs of the "American War." It was a very interesting perspective, and there were many amazing famous photos. There was only so much agent orange photos I could look at, so we relaxed at a cute bar upstairs, around the corner from our hotel, and had cold beer.
After a much needed nap, we all went to Bui Vien street, a very lively area full of restaurants, bars and fire eaters. We had beer, and talked for about an hour, then ate pho at an amazing tiny place on the corner. We were sweating bullets from the delicious spicyness.
