Reunification Hall fka The South Vietnamese Presidential Palace. Possibly the largest tourist attraction in Saigon. The palace remains in the exact condition as it was in 1975 when it was stormed by the Soviet army. (You may not know this, but Vietnam is technically a communist country today.) We are standing in the courtyard to the palace very near to where the Soviet tanks broke through the gates to the palace.
Notice the new addition to my photos? In what must have been the sweetest encounter ever, the little boy in the photos was game to test his English skills on Jason and I. However, he was horribly shy -- so we would get drive by hellos, how are yous, and generally lovely smiles. Finally after having a new friend for quite some time, we asked to take his photo and he agreed. So someone new in the blog!
