Basically, when we reached there, we realised that language is a big barrier.
They dont speak chinese (even those who look chinese).
English, abit only. like if you give them a sentence, they will huh and give a blur face.

I saw about three beggars. Felt kinda scared.

WATER PUPPET SHOW



The tour guide. He speaks chinese=)

a very nice cathedral according to the tour guide
beside it was their post office
Notice that their buildings are very european and colonial looking. Cause some french ppl lived in Vietnam before. Just like how the British ppl lived and ruled in Spore before.
telephone booth
I think I heard from the tour guide that this place was boomed by some terrorist. Cause last time theres Americans in there.
LUNCH at this restaurant opened by the last generation of the royalties in Vietnam.

and there is a underground whereby the president can flee from the secret door from his room to hide when attacked and receive secret reports and everything.

theres kitchen, president's bedroom,hall for president's wife to host her guests....

and so on our way back to Singapore, we saw Miss Indonesia. Very tall, pretty and friendly.

During one of the check-ins whereby the officers checks our passport for stamp, the officer saw my passport photo and asked me to put my hair behind my ears.
Then, he asked me to smile like the way i smile in that photo.
And then he shook his head.

Irritating.
