George working today so we have a street food bruch with G & Tom near home/hotel ... pork & rice ... excellent....then drink in District 1.
G & Tom off to Vietnamese class and work while we visit the War Remnants Museum.....
....while this museum doesn't attempt anything other than to depict the horrors inflicted upon Vietnam by the American war effort.....it has a big impact on us. Over and above the sheer scale of human suffering, the on-going legacy of chemical spraying, especially 'agent orange' with its lethal dioxin content is hard to take. We have seen many resulting deformaties at first hand, but none as bad as those depicted here.....and still it continues into the third generation with its DNA damage.
Takes us some time to recover from the experience.
Meet G for a fruit smoothie on the street before bed.
