On our first full day we took a tour bus out to the Cu Chi tunnels. We were quickly rushed from site to site, and I when they brought us up to the souvenir shop I thought that we might not get the chance to crawl through the tunnels. That would have been a great disappointment even though we only had to pay 4 dollars for the tour. But after a quick stop at the souvenir/shooting range we were marched back to a set of tunnels that they lets us crawl through. The couple of minutes we spent underground were definitely worth the 3 plus hours we spent on the bus.
On returning to Ho Chi Minh we put our walking shoes and headed to Water Puppets show. If you ever read the Vietnam Lonely planet it is a highly recommended show. The puppeteers were amazing and we were treated to some traditional Vietnamese music which we had been looking for all afternoon.
