Very safe. Lots of security guards and state troopers. Your kids would have a great time.

You might want to be careful of those gangbanging 6 year olds with those silly string bottles. It can get pretty real at the church.

Just got home from there. I took my 2 kids
18 and 13. We ate, walked around, watched the dragon show. Very safe family crowd. Good food. Great prices. I'll be back next year

I thought it was really cool seeing all the US and South Vietnam flags.

We just got back. Enjoyed it, although the band was a sucky cover band and too loud.

I have decided that I don't like balut. Everything else was good.

Picked up some goodies from Dong Phuong.

Tried it yesterday for the first and last time. The taste wasn't terrible, but wasn't good enough to eat again. Couldn't get over the look of it, especially when I spotted the beak.

Was my first time going. I couldn't tell the difference between the food vendors. All had the same stuff. I ate at the place just left of the stage. It was a mad house. Pho beef, the Sammich, spring rolls, and some kinda rice veggie plate between all of us And fried bananas
