Have a few mins to spare before we had out for a day on Mekong Delta.
Yesterday was amazing. Visited Cu Chi Tunnels, an underground system build by the Vietnames initially to allow them to rebel against the French. They then extended those 40kms by 220 in their offensive against the US. We got the opportunity to crawl along a small area. It was truly awesome, a rabbit warren of rooms/tunnels in which thousands of people ate, slept, cooked, delivered babies and plotted and planned their campaign. Irene managed to get a photo as I surfaced, haven't seen it yet - will post later.
