Vietnam!!

Alright I'm here, Vietnam! Our flight was nice and short, about an hour and 45 minutes, not too bad at all. Then we all grabbed our luggage and headed out to find our van to the hotel. Once we loaded up we all jumped in and headed off. The streets here are so crazy. Barely any traffic lights, everyone just goes when they want and there are so many scooters and little motorbikes everywhere. I can't even explain what the roads look like here, they are so jam packed you can't even see the ground. Every time we made a turn it seemed like we were going to hit someone or they were going to hit us! But we made it safe and sound. When we got to the hotel we were assigned our rooms and then all headed up to start unpacking. We are all on the 22ND floor, and the club we are playing in is on the 23rd, so we can just walk up a flight of steps and we are there! The rooms are amazing here, even nicer than the Hilton in KL. Everything is done with a touch of a button, you can turn on the lights, close the curtains, turn on the "do not disturb" sign, adjust the air conditioning, pretty much anything with a little button. The bed is huge once again, and so comfortable. The TV is a nice big flat screen again, but this time we have like 50 something channels rather than 20. The bathroom is quite nice, the shower has 3 shower heads, one above, and two on the sides, so water hits you from every angle. The laundry system here is so cool, we just put whatever we want washed into a bag and set it outside our door, then they wash it and come hang it up in your room for you by the next afternoon! The food is amazing too, we just have one place to eat, it's a really nice buffet and we can eat there three times a day. Then we are also allowed to order room service once a day after the shows if we want. The pool is really small and stays in the shade pretty much all day so it's not that great, but the gym is really nice. Not quite as big as the one in the Hilton but still nice. I think that's about all the details I know so far about the hotel.
Today Trina and I went out walking around, she's been here before with the band so she took me and showed me around. There are shopping complexes and grocery stores and everything we need all right across from the hotel. We went to this place called Ben Thanh Market, it's just all these little vendors in this big building that sell everything from clothes to food to electronics and it's all dirt cheap. After that we walked around some more and headed to a grocery store so I could stock up on some soda. The only kinds I could find here so far are Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi, but I am OK with that! By that time JD, our band leader called us and we had to head back to the hotel because our luggage that we shipped was arriving. So we all got our bags and now I'm back in my room just about to unpack!
