THURSDAY 2 OCTOBER – Phu Quoc to Ho Chi Minh City

The day is taken up with preparing for flying and dealing with airports. It’s only a short flight but it takes up much of the day.

But first a coconut and mangoes on the beach. It’s so hot and muggy. Already there are thunderstorms shaping. It really beautiful and peaceful on the water here.

Arrive in Ho Chi Minh City in early afternoon. I’m not feeling the best. I seem to have some stomach but that’s causing a discomfort and diarrhea. I get to the hotel not far from the airport and rest. I get out later in the evening to watch a fairly forgettable Hollywood movie at the local cinema. Vietnamese are keen movie goers but it must be hard for them to get to see movies in their own language. Most would have subtitles.
