Saigon (Ho Chi Min City) has to be one of the world leaders in moto-transportation. The city has about 8 million inhabitants, many living illegally, and everyone rolls a scooter. No one really bothers with traffic laws, but the motorists amazing flow together very well, like a river.
We spent a few days here checking out the War Museum and cruising around town. The Vietnamese perspective of the war is very sobering and different than that painted in the states. The people amazingly have no ill will against us being americans, but have seen some horrifying attrocities by our military. The military order "burn all, destroy all, kill all" and "if they're dead they're VC (Viet Cong)" left some disturbing aftermath.
