our flight delayed about 45 minutes.We took off from Kuala Lumpur around 8:30pm and arrived at Ho Chi Minh City at 10:30pm our local time.The airport was pretty nice and beautiful,just like our KLIA.

From the airport,we took taxi to our hotel.It costs us USD9.It's around 20-30 minutes to Ngoc Anh Hotel where we choose to stay during our visit in Vietnam.Over here,the taxi driver is not really knows how to communicate in EnglishFor those who are first time travel to Vietnam,you need to print out and show the taxi driver the hotel/destination that you want to go.

For your information,we booked our hotel from Agoda.The price is cheaper compared to the normal rate provided by the hotel.During our check-in at the hotel,we faced the difficulties to communicate with the lady receptionist.She did not really know to communicate and understand in English.Luckily,we met a guy,receptionist that work for the night shift,and he knows English.His name is Tran Dung.He helped us to check-in and settle everything.Our room no is 1403,superior room,USD 26/night.And i think it is consider cheap.The room is clean & comfortable enough for both of us.

We decided to go to Cu Chi Tunnel on the next day.Once agian,Tran Dung helped us to arrange with the local tourism agency.We only managed to have cup of instant noodle for our dinner as we were quite tired to go out and search for halal food.
