Left grace's home at 5 and headed for the airport! Once we got our boarding pass we headed in for breakfast andden went over to the gate. Boarded the a320 and less than two hours later we're here in hcmc!!! HEEHEE.
Just proves tt it really can be this easy to get out of sgp LOL. Took some time finding for a reliable cab to get to town, esp with so many ppl trying to overcharge us!! Thankfully we headed to the domestic terminal and it was so much better after. Met Pam at the hotel and left our stuff there before heading out again!
Walked all the way to pham ngu lao, supposedly the strip with the most hostels :) found a nice cafe selling pho so we headed in for lunch! Haha it was funny how well the owner kept treating zhiy! HAHA super awkward. Anw the pho was really yummy! True authentic Vietnamese food heehee. Not too ex too. Was especially thankful for the aircon esp with the 35deg forecasted weather. Haha.
After lunch we visited some travel agencies to find a bus that could get us to mui ne. Also to exchange our sing to dong. After some hard work we settled everything :D haha just happens that it was festival period (king's birthday) so the buses were all packed :/
Grace and I decided to go tailor our suits so we went to the pretty famous dung tailor (though the famous one had a diff address and i suspect it may be a fake haha) and i tailored a full suit plus a pair of pants! So happy! Less than 130 bucks HEEHEE. I hope it turns out well :) may want to tailor some shirts too.
Ying grace and i were on our way back to the hotel to meet w the rest who went back earlier to check out, and along the way we found them in the cab along the roadside!! Omg so heng! So they got off and we went to a nearby cafe to rest and wait for our bus to muine. THE VIETNAMESE COFFEE WAS THE AWESOMEST! :D omg.
After drinking the v delicious coffee ying Pam and i decided to head to another tailor to tailor some dresses which we printed out in sgp haha. Found one nearby the suit place and she was a v friendly lady who knows how to speak Cantonese!! Haha so awesome. Esp since Pam knew the dialect haha.
So we ended up tailoring a total of 7 dresses HEEHEE. About 30 usd each! If it turns out well its gg to be so worth it :D looking forward to receiving it alr!
Went back to the travel agency and waited patiently for the bus to mui ne. Apparently the bus broke down so we had to wait another hour for another bus to come -__- after 6 long hours with two stops in between, we finally reached our hostel in mui ne!
And OMG. It was freaking awesome. Just at the beach, and you could hear the sound of the waves perpetually!! Super nice and loud! And definitely v peaceful :) super happy haha.
After unpacking our stuff in the room we decided to grab some food. But turned out that all the restaurants in the area were closed so we settled for sandwiches from the 24h mart nearby. So sad. But it was 12 plus alr so I guess its inevitable. Not all places are like sgp haha.
Went back to our room, showered, andden talked to Pam and ying until we started to fall asleep. Such a happy escapade :D
