TASTE TEST

Staying in Can Tho in the Mekong Delta we bravely sampled a Vietnamese specialty, snake wine, distilled and bottled with Cobras. You have not tasted potent alcohol until you have burned your throat with this wine.

With a nasty hangover as a souvenir we braced ourselves for a long bus trip to Nha Trang. Nha Trang's most famous resident Mama Hanh runs the hottest gig in town, "Green Hat Boat Tours."

For the young and anyone else who likes to party, this day tour is not one to pass up. The tour takes you to several islands off the Nha Trang coast but they are just back drops to an all day binge.

For seven dollars the trip includes snorkeling gear, a phenomenal seafood and tropical fruit lunch buffet, floating bar and of course a party a'la Mama Hanh.
