It's very loud and full of people trying to shepherd us into each bar/restaurant which is a bit painful. Not quite as bad as Khao San road in Bangkok at least.

We've now arrived in Vietnam where we'll be for the next month. Our hotel turns out to be on one of the city's loudest and most touristy streets which we didn't realise when we booked it. The room is nice and quiet at least so it's not too bad. 

We visited the War Remnants Museum today which was a sobering experience. It's hard to believe that such carnage and cruelty happened so recently, and that it's still happening today in Gaza and Ukraine. The museum doesn't really hold much back and has some pretty awful photos and stories.
