Nice rider, good trip - Tintin and Joyce took a motorcycle tour of Ho Chi Minh City in the morning!! Thanks so much for the fun and friendly explanation!! The motorcycle was so fun for the first time and so friendly that it was easy to tour! The coconut juice I went with was really great! Everyone was so good at English, so good at it, and everywhere. Explanation. It was so fun to do everything! The hard thing is that I translated it to papago, so it was nice to explain it kindly.
