We have made it to Ho Chi Minh City and our luggage finally arrived today! A shower and clean clothes after a day of doing the tourist bit - The Jade Pagoda and War Remnants Museum (very one sided against the U.S. but still interesting and disturbing.
My first impressions of the city: it's not a beautiful place but it is endlessly fascinating. You get new high rise buildings next to falling down shacks, and there is new construction on every block. The main method of transportation is the motorbike and very few rules of the road are followed, but they do stop at stop lights unless they are turning to the right.
