Good morning Vietnam.(With apologies to Mr RW, )
Sun up over Saigon (HCMC) whilst taxiing to the terminal.
Now ensconced in a wee hotel beside the SinhTravel offices where we are to report in 4.25 hours for our bus to MuiNe, more of which later no doubt.
Trouble paying the hotel with my FairFx card so stumped up 583,000 VND (£20) cash.
However I went on line to see why my card had failed, only to find that the charge has gone through, TWICE.
Much shaking of heads and finger pointing ensued, and I think it is being sorted. Time will tell.
Update: Bus driver missed our hotel which meant a long drag of cases back along the main street, in the dark, whilst being touted all sorts. Then, more card challenges. Aaaarrrgh!!!
PS: Forgot that this place, MuiNi, Is bi-lingual. Vietnamese and Russian. What a happy lot, not.
Tomorrow will be better.
