War and Religion – Chu Chi Tunnels and Cao Dai
“What is the only good tiger?” asked the tour guide while the rest of the bus rolled their eyes in a ‘Oh god, not another crappy joke!’ way. “A tiger beer”. Groan. At the risk of generalising, why are ALL tour guides more annoying than unscheduled stops at tourist workshops?
A few moments later the bus stopped for half an hour at a tourist workshop.
I had finally made it onto the tour to see the Cao Dai temple and Chu Chi tunnels. Religion and War on the same trip. The two sites have little to connect each other, but the broader issues certainly do. I doubt the organisers had the intention of teasing out the links and even though i would like to, i think such a discussion is slightly beyond the scope of this post.
