Her: You want to change Vietnamese Dong to Chinese money?
Us: No thanks, we have renminbi.
Her: Yes, Chinese money, renminbi, you buy!
Us: No thanks.
Her: You have Dong? You can buy Chinese money.
Us: No thanks.
Her: You drink beer.
And she disappeared to bring us a bag filled with beer, cup noodles and snacks.
Us: Ok, we buy from you later.
Her: Ok, you buy.
She plonked a can of Vietnamese beer on our cabin's night table.
We paid, not wanting to get her agitated.
Her: Where you from?
Us: Singapore
Her: Ahh, you how old? (pointing at me)
Me: 34, you?
Her: 38
(pointing at both if us) boyfriend?
Us: husband and wife.
Her: How many? (she gestured with her palm facing down at her waist level)
Us: none.
Her: mine 2. 14 and 8.
Us: wow! (looking suitably impressed)
Her: Singapore (and then she clicked her tongue as if to say, "they don't know how to give birth to children in Singapore", and walked out of our cabin).
