Geezers Need Excitement
There's a restaurant/bar around the corner from my hotel in Ho Chi Minh City called Allez Boo. Since I'm in a hotel district it mostly caters to Western tourists (notice the French-ish name). I highly recommend it by the way. If you spend two weeks in Vietnam, you're eventually going to get tired of Vietnamese food...pretty much what happened to Megan. Allez Boo is great because it has a very international feel there. You'll meet people from Austrailia, France etc... With like 30 budget hotels around the corner, you'll definitely find the backpacker crowd.
Anyway, while there I heard the first piece of familiar music blasting from the jukebox since this trip began. Two songs: "Geezers Need Excitement" and "Has Come to This" from Original Pirate Material by The Streets. (By the way, anyone reading this blog should immediately go out and buy both albums by The Streets. Special thanks to Carl and Derek for introducing me to them)
Well, familiar food and familar music has definitely made me homesick and luckily I'll be home soon.
