4,500 dong ferry ride

As we left a roadside cafe, heading back towards the ferry and HCMC... the sky ahead of growing pretty dark!


We really lucked out... as it rained a bit for a minute or two but somehow we missed the bulk of the storm. The roads were wet and puddly but our timing was, basically, awesome.

The ferry ride (a short one... maybe 15 minutes?) cost only 4,500 dong... which is about a quarter's worth.


The sky was pretty cool as we were on the ferry...


This is what our ferry looked like:


The ferry is jam-packed with motorbikes and cars/SUVs/15-passenger vans, etc. And apparently, there is no rule about turning your engine off during the trip... so a tip: don't park your bike in between any big vehicles! It gets HOT.
