Streets of Viet Nam

The big cities' streets in Viet Nam are very chaotic, and choking in exhaust, especially during rush hour. We still don't know how to navigate just to cross the street in the big cities like Ho Chi Minh, or Ha Noi. Whenever we went there, we wouldn't dare to drive ourselves. We would let our relatives to do the driving or call the taxis. I prefer to sit back, enjoy the scenery, and take lots of pictures.



Xe tang-The Funeral truck.


Duong di Cu Chi-On the way to Cu Chi we spotted this Lambreta with two oxen on it.






Duong di Mui Ne-street. Old and new transportations.



Duong di Nha Trang. The rice fields.


Duong di Phan Thiet. I ran after this oxen-cart to take the picture.



The newly built road near Cam Ranh.


Duong di Cam Ranh. What is this? An anti-aircraft-gun?









Duong trong thanh pho Nha Trang-Streets.






Many boys don't like shopping even for their own clothing, and Anh Vu is one of them.



My sister-in-law, Mai, sneaked up behind me and gave me the "rabit ears". Darn! We went shopping on the street (I forget the name) in Ho Chi Minh City with Mai and her daughter,Chau. They know how to bargain and we don't. Both sides of this street sale mostly mens' clothing. There are a lot to choose from and they are cheap-3, 5 to 10 dollars for a shirt or a pair of pants.
Have you noticed that Mai and Chau carried their jackets? They only took them off for the picture, because women in Viet Nam like pale skin, and they don't go outside without jackets to cover their arms. For me, the weather in Viet Nam is way too hot for even a light jacket, and I like tan skin better.
