Remember the scene in Forest Gump where Tom Hanks is talking about his time in Vietnam? I think he says something like “and then it started to rain, and in continued to rain for 3 months”. We had a similar experience. It is the rainy season in south and central Vietnam. After a few days of nice weather, the skies opened and it began to pour. It has never really stopped.
We made an attempt to fly from Ho Chi Minh City to Nha Trang, but were denied by the weather. The pilot started to approach for landing in Nha Trang, dropped the landing gear and then out of nowhere pulled up on that plane so hard I thought we were in a lot of trouble. He explained that the weather had deteriorated. We circled for 15 minutes and then gave it another try with the same result We flew back to Ho Chi Minh where we were able to and then hopped a flight to Danang where they weather was a bit better.
