Coolest Moment Of My LIFE

Occurred in Ha Noi city on the 28th, during our visit to Ho Chi Minh's mausoleum. (PS: One Dead Guy down, three to go!) Seriously, Coolest moment of my LIFE:

So we're walking through the mausoleum, which is basically a long wait in the hot sunshine and about 30 seconds to walk around three sides of Uncle Ho. (He looks kinda like a hologram, btw.) You're in the room for all of one minute, if that, and there are security guards present to poke you into the second row behind the bitchy Spanish girl.

Anyway, you walk out of the mausoleum and back up the stairs to the exit. I'm heading back up the stairs when I get poked. Oh, don't tell me we have to stay in two lines here, I think.

I turn around to come face to face with one of the major, major, super crazy important military officers whose job it is to guard Dead Guy Body.

"Beautiful lady," he says, flashes a SEG and then ducks into the door to the tomb.

So in other words, I got hit on by one of the highest-ranking members of the Vietnamese military in the most important place in the country.


I mean, how fucking cool is that?

That will be all.

(in other news, I'm going down there to Vietnam this winter and I'm gonna see myself some dead people!)

Hey, I'm still 1 for 3.5, so I'm not that far ahead of you. But do try to make it to see the good ole Uncle when you're down this winter.
