USD$1 - VND 18700 (Black Market)
SGD$1 - VND 13100 (Black Market)

Viet guys don't seem friendly but Viet girls are very friendly. So always think on the bright side. Venture alone always carry Risks.

welll...you can also have breakfast in bed.....

hhhmmmm...seems like a good idea....thinking thinking....BTW...how is the hunt for greener pastures coming along??

Google Maps (search for Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam)

On the other hand, if you take a ferry, you basically just go south along the Nha Be River, when you emerge at the South China Sea just go east a little bit and you're there.

Faster. Simpler. Less Risk.

My advice: take the ferry. Going by motorbike, you take your life in your hands. Trucks here don't seem to worry too much if they flatten a few motorbike drivers during their trucking careers. It'd be a very stupid way to die. I've done that trip by motorbike. It's dreadful. It feels really dangerous. Not enjoyable. The ferry takes half the time and you can relax and read a book, or else watch the scenery go by. Some nice mangroves along the way too. (that said, there's some who'd argue that riding one of these ferries is also taking your life in hands -- I like my chances swimming more than being rolled over by a truck though) (by the way, I know of a guy who actually had his arm run over by a bus here, and by some freak miracle it didn't even break)

If the truck knocks u n u dun die, the driver will reverse and knock u again. To them it is better that u die than u get into injury...

Been to Vung Tau... Took ferry both way. Fast n easy.

You can go to the website CONG TY DICH VU DU LICH HANG HAI VINAEXPRESS for the ferry schedule. The cost is only 160,000 VND per passenger.

I've took the ferry twice already and it took slightly more than an hour to reach Vung Tau. But my Vn girl get sea-sick whenever she took the ferry. She will rest by leaning her head on my shoulders, or she would lie down and rest her head on my thigh. I will then use my hand to gently stroke her long, smooth hair. So romantic....

But alas, that was more than 1 year ago, and we have broken-off since. Now she's trying to pair me up with her twin sister....
