Hanoi, New Years Eve Day.

January 9, 2012

Hanoi’s old quarter is bustling more than usual. This time it’s foot traffic not scooters. Hoan Kiem Lake is crowded with people, all wanting see and be seen, take pictures of the flower arrangements on exhibit here. Finally Marie and I have grown to enjoy the nutty lack of personal space on the street, and the crazy pace of the city streets. Of course this is not our day to day life.. we are just visiting.

It’s time to go out and see how Hanoi celebrates western New Year… The big party for them will be their Tet Lunar New Year.
We are off by airplane to Nha Trang tomorrow morning early , so us old folks won’t be watching the ball drop at 12:00am on Hoan Kiem Lake.
Party on Hanoi! We will miss you!
