Super, rainy day…

It was both an adventure, and rainy, and super. Wait, What?

Anyway, I rented a bike again. LOL will I ever learn? Probably not.

The mission today was a tomb of one of the Nguyen emperors, Tu Duc. The bike was great, a cruiser this time. The site, not far at all. The weather, no problem. A little rain wont hurt me, right?

hahahahahaha 

It didn’t. I was worried about my 700 dollar personal computer in my pocket. so that make my rainy bike rides a little more stressful. Also, I decided to go back a different way. I can trust Google maps, right?

hahahahahaha 

I got so rained on my underwear was wet. After lunch, I needed to find shoes, bc mine were now basically garbage.

Apparently,  I have no ability to learn any lesson, bc after drying out and changing clothes I went right back out in the rain on the bike again. No shoes found.

So now I’m in my last dry outfit. What do you imagine happened next? Yes, friends, I went out in the rain again. wtf. This time, walking, mission accomplished.

I felt a snack attack, so off I headed to the Big C. Foreign snack tasting party!! And beer.

Here’s hoping I have dry pants tomorrow. 

How about some pictures?

I don’t know why people pay to go to pagodas. There’s some on the way somewhere else, for goodness sake
Pictures can’t convey the rain today.

With the rain and the wind in the pines, it was peaceful and private feeling

So when I rolled in to the street outside the tourist attraction, this gal saw me coming. She got me for bike parking, a coffee, and rented me her personal umbrella.

This is the empress’s tomb. Note the Phoenix
This houses the stele of the emperor.
He never had kids, so most of his listed accomplishments were scholastic in nature
Note the five clawed dragon

This contraption was magnificent
Yes, I needed to be told this thing
The jungle takes back so quickly

This is the road back to town, according to my dumb ass and Google maps
Good, but a little spicy
Curry flavored rice chex. Delicious
Disgusting
Delicious
This is made by the Heineken company. Still good

All the snacks worth eating are gone, and so are 3 beers. Goodnight.
