Mellow Days

As busy as Ho Chi Minh City is, everyone seems to be so relaxed. Due to the heat, midday "rest times" seem to be the norm. And, everyone seems to enjoy the company of their friends and family over cups of coffee or bowls of noodle soup. Yesterday, Angela and I had a pretty mellow day - naps included.

We took a bus to Ben Thanh Market, the city's iconic market.
We rode an air-conditioned bus through District 1, just to see the sights.
Angela got to try Nuoc Dua (Coconut Drink) for the first time.
Played with one of my uncle's cat.
We had lunch and rested.
Dinner and played with my uncle's other cat.
Then, were escorted around the neighborhood by a couple of new friends.
