Saigon

I'm in Saigon now! This is a much more developed city than Phnom Penh or Vientiane. It reminds me more of Taiwanese or Malaysian urban areas. Interestingly, the red and yellow flags of the communist party are everywhere (hammer and sickle flags), much more than in Laos, where they seemed to be isolated to government buildings. The streets are narrow and traffic is tight. They say the key is to walk slowly and make eye contact with the drivers, oh and to watch out for the motorbike thieves.
I've got a day and a half to rest up. My buddy, Rob, is flying in tomorrow night!
