Waiting to emerge from a coma....

Ya know, Im waiting for Mr. odgnut to post something because I havent read anything interesting about his life in Saigon lately.  Im sure Im not the only one who is waiting either.

No water either

Back home, we know when hurricane season is in effect.

We know when a tropical storm is approaching  so that we can prepare by stocking up on water, batteries, non-perishable goods, and gas for the car or generator. Oh, let’s not forget reading material and playing cards for tieng len.   We know this because we are [...]

Thap Ba Spa in Nha Trang - it's all that

My dad and cousin left me on Tuesday morning, so I was all by myself in Nha Trang.   Since the blackouts in Nha Trang are every other day, I figured I would lay out on the beach all Tuesday and check out Thap Ba spa on Wednesday.

Bus rate from DaLat to Nha Trang

Just a small tip, but if anyone else has a better rate, please add in the comment, otherwise, I think Sinh Tourist had the best rate for an AC bus from DaLat to Nha Trang.

Sinh was 80,000 [...]
