ho chi min


I made a point of doing tourist things in hanoi. I took a tour and we saw this place, Ho Chi Min's mausoleum. They have preserved his dead body (against his wishes, he wanted to be cremated), and I walked by to take a look. Also saw his house, pretty simple which I liked. His cars weren't too great, Russian cars. Seeing Chiang Kai Chek's cadillacs, you have to say picking the American side was a good choice, car wise. That Lotus temple was next door to his house.
