Along with the bigger mug, Starbucks released You Are Here Ornament – Ho Chi Minh City 2, which is an updated version of the existing ornament. It has been a while since we’ve seen the last release from this collection, and that’s more than 3 years after the release of the Been There Vietnam ornament.

And the reason no one was expecting this, is that Starbucks already released Been There version of the mug for this city more than three years ago!
