Vung Tau 1

We are leaving Vietnam tonight. We decided to do a short bus excursion to a seaside resort called Vung Tau about an hour from the port.

Their claim to fame is a 30m tall Jesus statue. Like the one in Brazil except not quite that nice a view. :-P

Although its pretty hot and humid and there's a steep staircase, the sea breeze made it bearable.

I even took the narrow stairs inside the statue up to the shoulders. (The last picture is a 180 panorama from the top)

Halong Bay 2

It seems like my emailing in blog entries didn't work well last time. It only showed the first half of the Halong Bay pics. Here's the rest from the trip -
