Hello from Saigon (every still calls it that, even though they "officially" changed the name to Ho Chi Minh City).

 

Will be here for a couple of days, then I am heading off to Cambodia, where there are 40 million unexploded land mines and 50 people a month die from them.  1 in 275 people in Cambodia is an amputee from a landmine.  So, no peeing in the bushes!  I will take the advice of others and just do it on the dirt road.  Also, I am prepared to bribe the corrupt police... everyone says it is fully worth it - the country is supposed to be a travel dream come true.

 

So, starting later this week, I will be out of touch for a while...

 

Oh, and the CD on which I transferred the Thailand / Laos pix worked two weeks ago but is now not working.  So, I will not be able to share any of those with you.
