Vietnam by Train

Having trouble connecting to web. Have posted pictures, but wifi connection ended before they were published. Here we go again - quickly. Train from Saigon was on a sleeper berth at about 350 miles for 35 USD. Was rocked to sleep by train. It was very restful. Will send this without pictures. Will add pictures on the next post. They are berth, scene from train window, Saigon-Quynohn Hotel @ 40 USD per night, scene from front of hotel, cloud enshrouded mountain where I will go tomorrow.

  1. Karl,
    Thanks for the great pictures and thoughtful commentary. I am struck with several thoughts. One, we should never forget what we did to that country. Secondly, people forgive and life moves on. Finally, with peace came the chance for prosperity. It looks like the people may have found a way out of poverty. In fact, in looks like a very nice place to visit.
