Scenes from the Streets

Typical "traditional" house - tucked in everywhere

Morning on the river near school

Eel & snake at the market near our house

It is impossible to describe what we see every day here in Vietnam. The traffic is like we have never seen before and things that boggle our mind appear to be the norm. Here are some shots from our travels in and around the streets of Ho Chi Minh City.

Ciclo drivers in District 1

There ARE gas stations here - self serve


A small crowd, NOT waiting for the light



Momma w/babes crossing the street - why DID the chicken cross the road?

    We get conflicting reports. It doesn't seem So bad to me and I have a touch of asthma. Some locals say the masks are for air, some say they are sun protection. White/light skin is highly valued.
