Vung Tau
Re: Vung Tau
He,he.. Yeah I know what you mean. I wasn't too comfortable inside the bunker in flip-flops, cargo shorts and no flashlight. The jungle around the bunker was so lively that I was a little worried there'd be a snake or two in there. But the only living thing I saw was that huge spider.StroppyChops wrote:I sneaked underground at some Roman ruins once and disappeared off into the dark. Scared myself silly and couldn't get back to living company quickly enough.
Still.. It felt good getting out of there

Re: Vung Tau
That'll be all for now. It's getting late and I'm soon out of beer. Hopefully the little info I have provided will be helpful to someone that has never been but is considering going to Vung Tau.

Re: Vung Tau
I have sung Vung Tau 's praises many times, it's a great getaway. Banh khot is the town's signature dish and I'd consider it a wasted trip without indulging in mass quantities of the stuff. Go, eat, enjoy.

Re: Vung Tau
I fucking hate that. Sometimes I type long posts, then leave to do something and then come back and finish them. Then when I post it, it does an error and everything is lost. Used to happen a lot on K440 as well as another forum. So aggravating, I think it's because they have an internal timer. I now almost always copy-paste what I type (no computer problems though).doktor_d wrote:FUCKING FUCK!!!! My computer just crashed for the second time while I was in the middle of a long post.. I'll try to get the rest of the trip report done, but if the computer crashes again, it'll have to wait til later..
Anyways, excellent report! I'm still planning on doing a big Vietnam trip in Aug-Sept. Vung Tau wasn't on my radar but you've definitely added it on my list of stops!
