Last day in Ho Chi Minh

After rising early to watch the Lightning lose, we set out to do some shopping.  We are learning the art of bargaining and realizing that we should offer about half of what they are asking.  We met Jacob for lunch in a huge 5 story high end mall; beautiful shops and restaurants.  It is strange to walk off the street where there are many very poor people and into this very fancy mall where there are designer shops.  
We had the most amazing massage together in the hotel; the room had  its own tiny sauna and steam room and shower.  The cost was $22 per person.  I can only imagine how much that would cost in a swanky hotel in the US.  This is definitely a different world.
