LookAtVietnam - The Hollywood superstar and her six children left Con Dao Island this morning, November 16. After that, they took a flight from HCM City’s Tan Son Nhat Airport to South Korea.

A car took Jolie and her six children to the aircraft staircase. Though she was escorted by many guards and assistants, the superstar took all six kids to the airplane herself. After Zahara, Shiloh and the twins took their seats, Jolie and two sons returned to the terminal to say goodbye to airport staff.
Jolie and her two sons took photos with airport staffs. “Con Dao is very beautiful. My kids like the island very much. We hope to return here in the future,” she said.

Before leaving the beautiful island, Jolie and her sons – Pax Thien
and Maddox – praised the island’s beauty and wished to return here.
Jolie, Brad Pitt and six kids arrived in Vietnam on November 10, at around 8.20pm. The next day they had lunch, with all Vietnamese cuisines, at the Cuc Gach restaurant in District 1, HCM City. On the afternoon of the same day, they hired a plane of Air Mekong to fly to Con Dao Island. They stayed at the Six Senses resort until the morning of November 16.
This is the first time Pax Thien returning to his home country since he was adopted by Jolie in 2007.
On November 13, Jolie and Brad left their kids at the resort to pay a visit to the Con Dao Prison.

They say "

“I can’t say what made me fall in love with Vietnam - that a woman’s voice can drug you; that everything is so intense. The colors, the taste, even the rain. Nothing like the filthy rain in London. They say whatever you’re looking for, you will find here. They say you come to Vietnam and you understand a lot in a few minutes, but the rest has got to be lived. The smell: that’s the first thing that hits you, promising everything in exchange for your soul. And the heat. Your shirt is straightaway a rag. You can hardly remember your name, or what you came to escape from. But at night, there’s a breeze. The river is beautiful. You could be forgiven for thinking there was no war; that the gunshots were fireworks; that only pleasure matters. A pipe of opium, or the touch of a girl who might tell you she loves you. And then, something happens, as you knew it would. And nothing can ever be the same again.”
― Graham Greene, The Quiet American

Tips on Travel to Vietnam

It's always warm in Southeast Asia apart from high mountains, so leave the heavy clothing at home. Cotton and breathable fabrics are always better than synthetics -- although cotton does wrinkle a lot when traveling! December through April is roughly the dry season in that region, although it can still rain a little. December is a good time to go in terms of temperature -- cooler than in the humid summertime. Either way, wearing more clothing (shirt sleeves and long pants) is always more respectful towards the Asian culture, especially when visiting temples and rural areas.
