Linh, her brother (Long) and 2 of Linh's girlfriends and I did a day trip to the Ben Tre area of the Mekong Delta. We started the day with a 6:30AM, 2.5 hour drive from Saigon to Ben Tre where we spent the day doing touristy stuff. The large delta barges are still elaborately decorated with spirits to prevent the boats from harm. We also tried hot tea with honey, pollen, royal bee jelly and lime juice for which Ben Tre is renowned.
