Group in front of the Re-unification Palace (Presidential Palace) in Saigon.


The famous gates of the palace in the background (see below)


A North Vietnamese tank crashes through the gates of the Presidential Palace in Saigon on April 30, 1975. The taking of the palace marked the fall of the U.S.-backed south and the end to a decade of fighting.



At the War Remnants Museum - confronting, disturbing and only one-side of the story!



Eating again at lunch, before going to the market and a swim before dinner.
