Cuchi Tunnel

Our 2nd day here in Saigon. The itinerary was to visit the Cuchi Tunnel, our tour started at 7.45am with the tour guide Mr Bang picked us up in a mini bus, together we picked up a family of 10 Malaysian malay and a German girl. **** Mr Bang is a funny guy with sense of humour making our tour interesting. The whole group of us get along so well and was really fun throughout the tour in Cuchi. Honestly, I still cannot believe how people can live in those rat hole for more than 20yrs.To survived and the safety of their family should be the motivation. We went into one of the tunnel which has been expanded to twice the size for tourist like us to go in and have a look, even it has double the size we still need to bend real low, really thump-up to the guerrilla who lived in there. Redbabe was afraid of darkness so she kept flashing her camera flash light making route easier or else it was a pitch of darkness. Just by looking at these trap made my hair stand, it's terrific. **** A group photo here on the tanker was taken by Mr Bang he had at least 8 camera and kept telling us 'not to worry I have done this a thousand time', just look at my photo it almost lost the top guy, lols. All I can said is Mr Bang really love his job. **** At the entrance of the Cuchi Tunnel there is this tree, I have never seen a 'Jack fruit Tree' that bear so many fruits. After taking the photo of the 'Jack fruit Tree' our 'Cuchi Tunnel' tour ended. **** We joined the Muslim family to have lunch in a Hala restaurant. From here Mr Bang was so nice and took us to 'China Town' without extra charge. I had a very good bargain here in china town bought some hand made sandal, USD30 for 4 pair very pretty right? I bought some tiaras for a friend's daughter birthday party. Well, there are more photo and a better write up at: Redbabe cozy Conner. Bye for now.........
