Saigon Waterpark and leaving Vietnam.

Nothing could keep us from the very heart of Vietnamese culture: the SAIGON WATERPARK!

It was pretty much a water park: lazy river, wave pool, slides, overpriced food, screaming children. Very few foreigners. At around 3:30 the whole place emptied of children and there were about six people left in the whole place. Weird.

Dec. 3 (Day 81) was the big day. LEAVING VIETNAM! Yeah, so i wasn't that upset to be leaving. But there lots of good things in Vietnam. That is all I will say. The border crossing into Cambodia was a breeze and we found a place in Phnom Penh easily enough. And only $3... back to the preposterously low prices.
