Ku Chi Tunnels







In Saigon there are the tunnels hwere they fought the war against America. The Vietnamese are very proud of winning and have a huge tour of the area. There are some serious home made weapons and the poeple fighters are called ' the brave american killers'. I really wouldn't like to visit as an American tourist. The tunnels are tiny - made for the Vietnamese only. Gareth managed to squeeze in I wasn't so brave. But I did get to fire an M16 and Gareth fired an AK47. We had to buy the live bullets. Really insane! A good tourist day out.

I've heard those tunnels are REALLY claustrophobic - Gareth is very brave! And your flat and street - wow, what a tropical looking place!

You missed an absolutely wonderful wedding by the way, there are lots and lots of photos on facebook, Sue looked so gorgeous.
