Ho Chi Minh City / Bao Loc / Dalat

After the long 20 hours of flying, I wandered the streets of Saigon for a couple of days taking pictures

I met with Patrick of Dragon bikes and arranged to pick up the little Honda. I left Ho Chi Minh on Friday, March 30 and headed to Baoloc. After Baoloc, Dalat was next.



The pictures on the left show the street in front of my HCMC hotel and a view looking into the hotel from the side walk.

The entrance was shared by motorbikes (usually two), a couple of dozen sandals and a wonderful black and white dog! Breakfast was being assembled by the young man.
































Bao Loc was a brief stay after a very long ride from Ho Chi Minh City. The hotel was quite nice for a little less than 7.00. 

I think the breakfast meal at this elegant restaurant cost almost as much as the hotel.




Dalat was beautiful setting in the mountains (even with more crazy traffic). Families of four sometimes seen on a motorbike.  


These pictures in Dalat were taken on a Sunday! I think it's safe to say that the chicken DOESN'T cross the road in Vietnam. :) 


Note in the above picture that a family of four (two tiny ones) are not unusal in Vietnam.
