Day one and a dang tall building.

We had a great day one. The area we are staying is in district 2, so not in the city. It is a much different pace out here. We chose it to have a way to rid ourselves of jet lag, and it seems to be working. We had a nice breakfast outside along the Saigon river followed by about 3 hours of pool time. It is somewhere in the 90s so it was perfect. Went into the city later afternoon without any real plan of what to do. Looked up and saw the Bitexco tower which Barbie had read something about. On the spot decision to take a look from the top. Viewing deck is on floor 49 and some pretty amazing views. Since I can't post any photos the link will have to suffice.

It's almost 8 and everyone is crashing. I am not far behind.
More tomorrow!
