Revealed: Vietnam Secret Destination
The huge Port of Saigon is surely a constant exercise in collision avoidance. So, when I found myself on a Hydrofoil bound for Vung Tau, I gripped the edge of my seat and closed my eyes. About two hours later, the picturesque City of Vung Tau appeared. Scores of colorful fishing boats, with nets drying out, dotted the calm bay. No doubt their harvest of shrimps would be consumed worldwide. Just thought I'd mention that, later, I would be eating those shrimp at a price that would have you drooling. Sorry, It was my duty to tell you.
