Mui Ne to HCMC

                              Fishing Village on our way south from Mui Ne

  So we have all arrived in HCMC, the five from Dalat and us coastal travelers taking ferry from Vung Tau into the heart of the city.  We have been a full day + in Saigon and it has been a positive experience just wandering around the streets and visiting the central market and various museums.
There’s a great food place a block from our hotel that we can’t get enough of with all varieties of food and beer in an open air atmosphere. Sort of a Portland food truck center without the trucks.
Besides wandering and eating we have all had to get our bikes boxed up for the flight and organize for our trip home.
It is a very satisfying feeling completing this 1000 mile adventure down the length of this amazing country, and though we have all eaten and drank well we feel fit and alive.  I couldn’t ask to travel with a more congenial group and I look forward to more adventures ahead.
It has been a privilege!
To Phil, Lee, Robert, Lisa, Enrique, Karman Mel, Sam, and Dick.......it has been a pleasure!
May we ride again!
