Airport counter try to sell taxi to d1 at 220k
Walk outside took vinasun cab to hotel at Pham Ngu Lao only 128k, gave 130.
Slept till morning hv free hotel breakfast then to Ben Than market.

Walk around saw many people eating some kueh w pork floss 18k a plate, ordered w sugar cane 10k...taste good...its named Bao xx Hue can't remember exact name.
Money changer open at 10am, changed n back hotel.
Went Circles to buy simcard but sold out, approach hotel n one of the staff brought me nearby foodstall n got a mobisim for 120k w 100k load.
Rested n evening ate at nearby roadside stall, chicken n fishcake w rice n soup 40k, then walk bui vien so many people sitting n drinking ,quite a few okts approach me but I just ignore as i m tired due to lack of sleep.Don't see any girls on bike approach me. Many girls giving flyers for $5 an hour massage, so cheap?? Some bars w girls waving people in.
Saw pool tables in some bars, wondering is it buy the girl a drink n play pool w her?
Bro. You might want to try the casino at the Sheraton Hotel on Dong Khoi. I find it to be even better than the exchange shop on Dong Khoi by a small margin.

Of course you'll need to do one time quick registration. It's my goto place for foreign exchange.
