Long weekend of Ben Tre, Vietnam

This past weekend we had a two day public holiday. I booked to stay in a nice place in a place called Ben Tre in the Mekong Delta. We'd decided to to a road trip on my motorbike. Just so we could get out of the city.

The journey was okay, although not the picturesque scenes I thought it might be. The hotel was in quiet place on the Mekong river. The hotel was called the Ben Tre Riverside Resort and had been recommended by a friend.

As you can see, it was quite nice. There wasn't much to do, just relax by the pool and read books.

The surrounding area was nice with a nice park and good views of the river.

It was a very nice break and its good to know I can get out the city if I need to. Back to work now. Not too long until the next holiday in Myanmar!!!
