First few days in Saigon City - Feb 27

Cara and I had a couple of days in Ho Chi Minh city before Sheena arrived. In the market it was very common to see the ladies sitting right beside all the food picking at this feet and then handing out meat....we did not eat here!!!
Ho Chi Minh city....population of 9 million and about 6 million have a bike. The rule is to only worry about what is infront of you. The rule for crossing the street is not to stop or you will get hit.
Street vendor...some of these little ladies are very strong. Pushing and carrying food around all day in the heat.
A typical appartment building...skinny and tall...desks filled with clothes.
A view of District 1 in Ho Chi Minh City.
