akujunkanWatch as Vietnamese Customs Makes Yours Truly Shit a Brick less than eight minutes after having arrived in the country:
I disembarked from the plane, headed to immigration control, and handed the officer my passport.
"Step over there," says she. I notice that none of my fellow travelers have been asked to "step over there."
"Okay?"
"You don't have visa to enter Vietnam."
Au contraire. I most certainly do. I take my passport back, reopen it to the page with my visa, and hand it back.
She looks at it again and shakes her head before calling no less than two other immigration officers over to look at it while I stand there, sweating bullets. I'm finally waived through, with no explanation given as to why my not-visa visa was suddenly a visa again.
But hey, at least I'm here.
Cheers!
That will be all.
