...unwittingly sparked the contention when he went to Ho Chi Minh City (formerly the South Vietnamese capital of Saigon) in October 1994, in search of promising new business ventures that might result from the Clinton Administration's impending normalization of relations with Vietnam. While driving down Le Duan Boulevard one afternoon, Hank Meijer asked his driver to stop at the former U.S. embassy, atop which the tragic last moments of America's involvement in Vietnam had been played out.

The curves in the road are extremely sharp, and even in daylight, the way between the two casinos is poorly marked and often confusing. Back on Mohegan Sun Boulevard, I take my first real look at the complex's exterior. The place is a monstrosity.
