More stuff for the travel chronicals

[JackR]

So I leave day after Thanksgiving for another 3 week business trip. Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai, Chongqing, Ho Chi Minh City.
I needed a visa for Vietnam. Got that a couple weeks ago. My contact there sends me this text today
Third world travel. Got to know who to pay

Joe & Jack,
Welcome back to Vietnam.

1. For travel Visa, please make sure print it out.
2. Please wash out & bring 2 visa photos of each person. If you don’t do this, it will cost 30 minutes at least at custom to take photos.
3. Please go to “Landing Visa” “Visa application individuals” counter to change Visa(attachments), no need to fill in any documents.
Just hand in travel Visa & 2 photos, with 2 or 5 US$ tip for each person, give to them.
This is east-south Asia, if no tip, 2-3 hours waiting, they don’t care;
2 dollars tip for each person, 20 minutes waiting.
5 dollars tip for each person, 10 minutes waiting.

Then the Marriott hotel is 2,600,000 per night. Dong that is. About $250.00 US.

I learned a long time ago to try it but never ask what it is before I do. And even after i finish eating I don’t ask if even i liked it.
