B is for Bầu cua tôm cá. It's a Vietnamese gambling game played on the new year. For Michael it was his first time playing, but he quickly got into the groove of things and started looking like a local, barefoot and all.
Days 7 and 8 were pretty slow paced compared to the beginning of our trip. Again we visited my grandpa on my dad's side before playing Bầu cua tôm cá. The next day we went to the beach and then over to my Aunt's house for lunch. After that, my cousin and I went into the city for street food, and boba. It might be really disgusting to you, but the snails were awesome!
They were smaller than the snail's I ate in Paris or the US, and instead of being cooked in butter, this was cooked in lots of spice!
The rest of the day was leisurely spent. We took a walk along the river, had some ice cream, then hit the local bar for drinks. I won't go into detail, but I will say a lot of memories were made :)
