Flying into Ho Chi Minh City was unlike any other aerial approach I’ve seen. Like most busy airports, we circled in a holding pattern before landing. Although the business capital of Vietnam, HCMC is not a city of tall buildings. Not unusual for a developing country, but even from the sky, it was unique. Usually, a yellow glow hangs over cities, being illuminated by millions of incandescent lights. But HCMC was a neon city. From the sky, the city was a hodgepodge of neon blues, reds, and oranges, along with some purples, yellows, and greens. Once en route from the airport to our hotel, we got a first hand look at the busy avenues chock-full of neon signs. Different, but cool. As we’ve just been here one night, I don’t have too much to report other than lots of neon signs and millions of motorbikes.
