Gooooood Morning Vietnam

After a wonderful six weeks in Cambodia, it was time to head over to my next country. As sad as I was to be leaving Cambodia, I had an extra special visitor to look forward to in Vietnam. To get to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon or HCMC), I would once again be passing through Phnom Penh.

Dolphins and turtles and fish! Oh my!

After a quick visit to Phnom Penh, I wasn't super thrilled with the city so I hopped on a bus up northeast to a place called Kratie. The pronunciation of the city is something like Krach-ie, but I could never seem to get it right.

Tour from hell

I know I'm seriously behind on this blog. About three weeks of Vietnam behind to be exact. I'll get around to it, I promise.

Rice rice baby.


Now that I've moved on to Vietnam, its time for my Cambodia food post. I'll start this off with one word: rice. Rice for breakfast. Rice for lunch. Rice for dinner. And, just like Thailand, there was always some sort of basic fried rice available to tourists who didn't feel like eating anything else. I also found that there are fried noodles, which included the same components as fried rice, but substitute instant ramen noodles for the rice.
