We met some European tourists who didn't like the textures of the fruit. One found out the dip in the middle was not coconut/sugar but salt/chiles.

Maybe because I was the only Viet on the tour, but I was the only person allowed to paddle a boat. My paddling was definitely rusty... the tiny women put me to shame as we towed the big men behind us.

Dan took over the last couple of minutes while the tour guide relaxed. After this, the tour was over and I took the bus back to Saigon by myself while Dan took another bus to his accommodations for the night. The next day he would see the famous floating markets.
