Vietnam

The "Red Mother" that was the Mekong River - Awesome!
The markets - everywhere!
Motorcycles - the lifeblood of the cities.The developing city - historical, colonial, modern.
The War Remnants Museum - Feel the sadness and see the wastage of human lives on both sides.
Trees grow tall in HCM City.
Leave the cities and see how the rest of the Vietnamese people go about their daily lives.
Vietnamese noodles - healthy food.

Ben Than Market

From the roof top restaurant of the Tan Hai Long Hotel, we got a panoramic view of a small part of HCM City. The flow of motorcyles in continuous flux gives the impression that they are the lifeblood of the city. When they stop, that is when the heart of the city takes a rest.

Motocycle Entertainment

My friend and I stood by the side of this traffic madness glad that we made it across the road and glad that we would soon be back at our hotel, away from the noise and confusion.
