It is 0113 in Saigon (1313 in Chicago).  We left Chicago at 1100 today and had a 12 hour flight on ANA to Narita Airport in Toko.  After a 4 and a half hour layover, we flew to Saigon - a flight of 6 hours and 15 minutes.  Economy class.  It was good to walk around.  Both planes were nice and the service was nice as well.  Narita airport is very modern with lots of interesting shopping.

We are now in the Park Royal Hotal in Ho Chi Minh City - absolutely beautiful!  We leave in the morning to fly to Hue, and will then drive to Dong Ha, where we will be staying.  I love Saigon and am sad we will not have time to walk around and go to the markets.  Next time.
