May 2013

After I got back from my Cambodian 'adventure' (about five or six weeks) I ran MARS station AB8AJ for the remainder of my tour.

I'd like to go back and see the tunnels underneath the Cu Chi base as well of some of the buried war materials in the Iron Triangle. I'd like to see the view from the top of Nui Ba Dinh a.k.a. the Black Virgin Mountain. Hue, Hanoi and the Ho Chi Minh Trail are some other sights I'd like to see.

Alas, $$$$$ also stand in my way.
