Last Days

During the last days of Max's visit to Vietnam we tried a few new things. The Saigon Central Post Office in District 1 is one of the oldest buildings in HCMC. It was built in 1886 and reflects the French style. (Vietnam was a French colony.) Some say the building was designed by Gustave Eiffel, but that might not be true. It is a working Post Office and is beautiful inside and out.
With friends we tried a new restaurant called Skewers. Delicious!! Then we walked around downtown -- it was our first time wandering in the tourist areas at night. Great fun!
