Can Tho Morning

After Brekkie, I was strolling back to the Hotel. As I looked at all of the food stalls, already doing a brisk business at 7 AM, I realized that there is never any doubt where your food comes from here in Vietnam. It is right out there on display.

As a side note, i did go to one supermarket here in Can Tho. Brand spanking new, very weird, and I was struck by the thought of "Why would anyone shop here?" But there were people in there. I did notice that one of the big sellers were Costco sized carts of beer. But really, I mean, shrink wrapped produce in Vietnam? What the hell. You can't take three steps in the street without tripping over a produce stand of some sort.

Today I am leaving Can Tho for Ha Tien, near the Cambodian border. If not, I will make it at least as far as Rach Gia. I saved myself some grief and extra waiting by booking the ticket ahead. The convenience of doing this cost me 20,000 Dong. Yuppers, one buck. Saved me two hours of waiting at the bus station.

Ciao for now. I believe that Wifi is going to start to get a little more difficult for awhile, so you will be spared some of the frequency of my posts. Be well.
