Santa found us on Christmas Day at the Intercontinental Saigon for a holiday feast. Merry Christmas to all!!
Corbin is a happy camper with the dessert buffet
The English Christmas tradition of crackers with funny hats has infiltrated Vietnam. When in Rome...
Dim sum, lobster, sushi and shrimp. Christmas is delicious.
Our cracker came with a toy and not just a goofy hat!
