So I finally made it to Vietnam after one more botched attempt to pick up my passport at the Vietnamese Consulate in Bangkok (somehow I mistook 16:30 for 6:30 as the closing time, and reached the office just as it closed on Monday) - luckily I had time the next day to pick up my passport before my …

Quite scenic, but I liked Saigon better.Group dinner and bye to everyone. Be…
