Another great long day starting with the group eating at 7 in the morning and by 8:00 am the group left for the tunnels. The drive to Cu Chi took 2 hours, but everyone seemed energetic and happy.
Kai wanted to write a reflection on his experience in VN, but by the time we got back to the Palace I was so exhausted. I am so tired to do anything except posting a quick note and a few pictures to parents to let them know that we are okay.
The Mekong is tomorrow.
Take care from Saigon,
