Visiting Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum

Yesterday morning I want to Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum. Heather wasn't feeling good so she stayed in. I really didn't know what I was going to. I thought it was just a memorial and a cool building. So I go through several rounds of security that make get rid of my back pack and then my camera. I get in line that is guarded with multiple armed guards with bayonets. Then I get into the building and think to myself, "wow, it's really cold in here, that's not typical in any Vietnamese building". I go up stairs with lots more guards till we finally get into the "main room", and well...there's Ho Chi Minh. Vacuum packed, and sealed for freshness. Guarded by four guards on each corner. I wasn't expecting that. Oh well, pretty interesting at least.

Here's some pictures I took from the morning.
