it's right outside of Da Nang on the way to Hoi An. I forget the name, but you can't miss it. There's a brand new temple just built.

she's totally checking you out

where is this, may I ask? I'll be going to vn next tet.

I worry for her, nice shot though.

I would love to travel there. I've not been to Asia...I'd no doubt load up on fabrics.

I might be going to Vietnam soon.

what's this about clothing made?

eating at these things are always kind of iffy. they dont' always wash the utensils and bowls, other than a quick swish in a dirty water bowl. but then some of the meals are on the street. so i just bring lots of pepto and imodium AD.

i never broke any chairs, but i've tipped a few over while seated.

did you get used to throwing your trash and bones on the ground under the table?

or how about the little square pieces of paper they use for napkins? i learned my lesson from the previous trip there. take your own tissue, napkins and toilet paper every where you go. ;)

lol. thanks :)

how did you know i was there around Tet? we flew out a week before Tet was starting.

lovesit: no, nothing made. i wouldn't wear it anyway. not really my style. :)

miss76: the main reason i don't want to go is that very reason...your sister's going to be there...i'm too old to be going to same concert as your sister.

tq1: vietnam is great...and now i'm ready for entire SE Asia region...especially Thailand.

Nice!

So cool to find old travel pics. I will make it to Vietnam one of these days.

This was one of my favorite daily sights throughout the country. And those wee, little stools! My friend broke every one he sat on.

Was everything closed for Tet when you were there?

that looks like an elegant tea room. no i haven't but i do like their new song on kroq. my kid sister already got tickets to the staple center show

Classic, Hoi An. Did you have any clothing made?

yes. very. the first time i went in '95, the bathroom was a hole in the ground. now every bedroom has a toilet + urinal and bathtub/shower with hot water.

lol. thanks. :)

i think we went every night that we weren't on the road. not much else to do because everything is closed.
