    The first time I went to Vietnam was with the USAF 1967-69, enlisted not a pilot or aircrew in the USAF. Later I flew as a first officer for a US Airline between 1970-71 and flew in and out of Vietnam during that time along with many other destinations globally. After an airline layoff I worked in Vietnam as a civilian from February 1972 to September 1974; I initially worked in Quy Nhon aka Qui Nhon on a Mountain Communication site south of the city (Vung Chua Mountain) for a year or so. After the stint at Vung Chua my job took me all over Vietnam from Phu Quoc Island and Rach Gia in the south clear up to Dong Ha and most cities between and our company sites between. My wife is Vietnamese we were married in 1974 and we left in late 1974. We did not return to Vietnam until 2011, we were both working in Japan at the time. Now we go every two years. I have travelled extensively not only in Vietnam but all over the world; six of seven Continents (46 Countries) including all countries of East Asia, between the Philippines and the Andaman Sea, except for three. N. Korea, Siberia state of Russia and Indonesia (have flown over Siberia enroute to and from China and within sight of Indonesia when flying through the Strait of Malacca). I have also been to India, Pakistan and Iran too on west of the Andaman Sea. In February of 2019 we will go back to Vietnam again. My wife does not care for travelling extensively so she does not go around the country she prefers to visit her sisters and family in Ho Chi Minh City while there. I will fly from HCMC on Vietnam Air and will visit Quy Nhon, Nha Trang and Dalat, I have not been to any of these places since 1974. While in Quy Nhon I will go back up to the top of the mountain where I worked and plan on visiting several of the ancient Cham Towers in Binh Dinh Province, couldn’t do that in the seventies. I will be staying at the Muong Thanh Hotel in Quy Nhon and a private car has been arranged for going around Binh Dinh Province. Nha Trang and Dalat were two of my favorite cities in Vietnam. I will travel to Nha Trang from Quy Nhon by train. I know Nha Trang is now beach resort and heavily visited. In Nha Trang I will stay at the Hotel Intercontinental on the Beach. I wanted to stay at the Michella, is across from the beach totally updated and a high rise now, it used to be the La Frigate where I stayed multiple times in Nha Trang but it was booked. The older La Frigate was a one story quaint place with a courtyard and across the road from the beach back in the seventies but it is not so quaint and relaxed any more. Dalat may not be as touristy now but I won’t be surprised if it is. I will have to see when I get there. In Dalat I will stay in an old French venerable hotel I used to stay in when going there with my work in 1973-74; the Dalat Palace, travelling to Dalat from Nha Trang by private car and while travelling around Dalat and Lam Dong Province. I will fly back to Saigon from Dalat on Vietnam Air. In October 2019 I’m going back up north to Hanoi for a couple of days then up to Ba Be National Park, Ban Gioc Falls (Cao Bang Province, Chinese border area) then to Halong Bay all by private car. Last year I went to Hanoi (2nd time there), Sapa and Lao Cai. The nice thing about Vietnam is the country is not overrun with tourists very few except for Ho Chi Minh City aka Saigon, Hanoi, Sapa and Halong Bay. Good advice pertaining to visas, my wife and I both have five year multiple entry exit Visas for Vietnam. I am looking forward to my next two trips to Vietnam.

I took a overnight cruise with La Pinta boat and did a lot of interesting activities. Hope that next time I would the chance to visit the South
