More Monkeys
Hi again,
Been welcomed to Saigon by Ton, Tanh and Thy Anne (Renates friends) and Renate’s made it too. Ton took us to Rang Sac just south of the city. The mangrove forest there is populated by very cheeky monkeys. Spot Renate’s leg!
Unlike a certain member of staff we kept ourselves to ourselves and were perfectly safe, say no more. A middle aged lady was not so lucky and one of them grabbed her, poorly held, bag. The bag and it’s contents (papers, credit cards,etc) were away into the trees. No doubt the monkeys have already booked their flights on the internet, maybe they are coming to visit Chris?

Every day is full of new discoveries – crossing the road for example requires a special technique – explored Saigon on my own, got lost and hitched a ride with a student on a motorbike.
Today we are in Nha Trang and went diving. I chickened out of scuba-diving and went snorkling instead. Beautiful fish! I am so happy to see Ton, Thanh and Thy Anne in their own country. They certainly did the right thing going back.
