Water Parks and Whip Lash!

As Saigon is such a hot, sticky, busy city we decided to spend an afternoon chilling out at a local waterpark. We had the best time ever! The water park seemed just like other ones we had visited - however - all of the rides were just a little bit, well, dangerous! A favourite of mine was a racing slide you had to go down head first that ended in a plunge pool - all of your insticts were telling you that it was a stupid, dangerous thing to do - but it was so much fun you just had to! Kind of regretted it the next day though when I woke up with whip lash and had to literally roll out of bed!! (SORRY TO INTERUPT BUT THAT IS A BIT OF AN UNDERSTATEMENT! SHE COULDN'T MOVE PROPERLY FOR DAYS AND DIDN'T I KNOW ABOUT IT! ADAM CAN YOU JUST PICK THIS UP, ADAM CAN YOU JUST PASS ME THAT, OOOOH MY NECK HURTS!) He exaggerates!
After a few days in Saigon we headed over towards the coast for a couple of days in the sun. While we were there we discovered these huge sand dunes where you could go sand-sledging - it was awesome! These little children gave you a plastic mat to sit on and just pushed you off the edge of a gigantic sand dune - absolutely ace (if not just a little scary!)!
YOU ALSO GOT A MOUTH FULL OF SAND FREE WITH EVERY GO YOU HAD ON THE SLEDGE!! He's not exaggerating this time! It literally took us days to wash the sand out of our hair, ears etc!
