Planning For The Finale In Europe

War Remnants Musuem, Beach, and Vietnamese Kiss, Marry, Kill

In this week of travel we fit in a lot of activity. Most notably we went on a tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels (day 194 below) where we got to experience what the VC fighters and locals had to endure during the war. On that tour AC also shot an AK47 which felt like
Exploring Ho Chi Minh City With An Overclocked Brain
