Taking flight AK884 depart KL(1940) arrive HCMC(2040)

After check out from Tan Son Nhat International Airport, we took a taxi (vinasun taxi-USD 8)to the Ngoc Minh Hotel. (283/11-13, Pham Ngu Lao Street, District 1, HCMC, Vietnam) ngocminh.hem@gmail.com.

1st impression in HCMC, keeps me thinking of 1 song~~
oh the vietnam road is long..
e..i..e..i..o
with a honk honk here..
and a honk honk there..
everywhere a honk honk..
oh the vietnam road is long..
e..i..e..i..o

Motorbikes are extremely a lot more than u can think. honks everywhere..huuh..tension driving in HCMC

When the taxi driver told us that we already arrive, we was shock as he told us to go into a small 'lorong' and the hotel is just right behind the 'lorong'. we was abit nervous because the 1st impression is not so good.

We stil check in, room 303. They kept our passport, and will return to us when we check out. the room is quite nice and clean~relief~ we put our bags in hotel and start our 1st step in HCMC. we went for dinner 1st, as it is already 9:30pm.

Our 1st dinner-PHO 24
A chain restaurant serving PHO (like kuey teow in malaysia). taste ok only.

After that, we walked around and discover new area. we found 'sinh tourist'. a quite famous local trip agency, where we want to booked our local trip there also. we also tasted a vietnam frech bread (like subway style burger)(VND15000), this type of stall can be seen in anywhere along the road, is like ramli burger stall in malaysia. quite nice!
