Day 179 (Tue 2 Jan) - Mui Ne / Saigon
Up early for brekky and packed our bags.
Sat on the beach for about an hour, sat on our verandah for a bit and then checked out at 12pm.
Our bus to Saigon was scheduled to arrive at 1.30pm but did not arrive until 3pm. Not too happy with that!
Got on the small, crowded bus and trundled off to Saigon. Because our Vietnam book is a knocked off copy and hence the large scale map is practically useless, we didn't have a clue where we were. Just that we were south of Mui Ne and north of Saigon. Quite a liberating feeling.
Got to Saigon about 7ish. Walked round Pham Nhu Lao, the backpacker district, until we found a reasonable place to stay. Checked into the Peace hotel. Cheap and cheerful room, although a little noisy. Dumped the bags and then went to Kim's cafe next door for a bite to eat.
Walked round the busy streets for a while before turning in.
