2nd day in Vietnam (Bien Hoa)

Holler!

Thanks for all the well-wishes in the comments ppl! I will do my very best to stay safe on this trip, not to worry =) Oh and thanks to all those who called or msged me prior to my departure- I'm sorry if I didn't reply or return the calls, I had no credit left!! =D

Well, after a transit at both Melbourne Airport and Bangkok Airport, I finally got into Vietnam 16hrs later (yes, 16hrs!!!), all safe and sound! But then we went to eat in Saigon and abit of shopping before taking a 1 1/2hr drive to my grandparent's place in BA RIA. I was quite buggered by then but I just couldn't rest my eyes (I still can't)!! I won't forget the moment when I stepped into the house to greet my grandma- she was oh-so-happy to see me I came to give her a BIG hug and in return she hugged and kissed me all over my face i didn't think she'd stop! But then again, I think she was really kissing my mum (through me if you know what I mean) because my mum lives on the other side of the world to them and I know my grandma misses her heaps! So I got a little teary when she constantly kissed me hehe

So it's almost 10am in Vietnam right now and I just had coffee with my cousin at some "fancy" cafe and am now at an Internet cafe resting abit. I had to get up at 5am (yes, 5am!!!) this morning to shift from one relo's place to another. Everything happens so early over here. Everyone goes to work/school around 6-7am and they don't finish until around midday or just after. My cousins and I will be going on a tour up North in 2wks time but for now, I've made no plans so I'll just take things as it comes!

I have plans to gain some weight over here and my relos are telling me to follow and eat whatever my little cousin Y (pronounced "e") eats because she's a little round girl who eats A LOT!! I saw her eat and I don't think I can do it!!!!

Well, time to visit some more cousins now

I will try to post some pics along the way...
