My five day trip to Vietnam 4/21/2016

Thursday, April 21st, 2016

I woke up the same time when I did my morning prayers. I also had breakfast with the same meal and drink. I got down with my friends at 8:20am and move on our way to the Pagoda orphanage. It took us like around 30-45 minutes. When we got there, we seen the Pagoda with the big Buddha statue. There were also orphanage who were playing around with myself and me. The orphans were dressed in blue outfit and their appearance were bald and some girls have their ponytail hair on the bald head. I play around with them and my friends taught basic English words like "hello", 'speak', 'hi' and other words that are only basic. We also feed them with rice and soup and helping cleaning windows and other furnitures. I felt really bad for these orphans because they were born without their parents since they couldn't get married, get education and not living enough with more money. The people only adopt the orphans from the government. After the orphanage, we stop out for a lunch to the same area, but a different local restaurant on the opposite that we went the same restaurant two days ago. We ate some rice and soup also. After our lunch, we continued go straight to Ben Thanh market, straight forward to the restaurant. We had to be together in groups, because these people are pretending to be nice but they are aggressive since they were going to pickpocket us and steal our important stuffs. We bought some clothes and caps. For me, I just bought myself a four word Saigon shirt with an American flag on a S and Viet Cong Saigon with a star and also a cap for my father. We went straight back to the hotel and have a rest until 6:30pm for our dinner. Before we go out for dinner, we had to be ready to pack our bags and do the worksheet that the teacher gave us. Well, I have done it because I don't want homeworks. After much time of rest, we were excited for our dinner and we, once again, went to the same area that we ate at two restaurants and also a Malaysian cuisine. I ate rice with yellow soup and vegetables. Afterwards, we quickly went back to the hotel and do some free time. As for myself, I slept at nine o'clock in a night.
