Is this the Mekong Delta?

No, this is Halong Bay, the Mekong Delta is very muddy (all the pictures in the beginning of the album)

Is this T-34? looks like it

Not sure, I thought this was an american tank.

Wow Olya! Vietnam, how about that! How was it? I'd love to hear about your trip. Who did you go with?

Vietnam was wonderful! I went with a friend from b-school. I am actually technically not back yet, flying in this weekend. Once I am back, I'll actually write comments to all the photos, this was just a forced upload to free up memory space.

So back to my question, are they communist over there?

~~~~Yep, very much so

Oi dedushka nash! Ura!!! Zdravstvui rodnoi!

Yummy, that means you were there during Christmas time :)))


~~~~~~
Yes, left the day after Christmas

The scenery reminds me of "Duck Tales", don't you agree?

What is this? Ne os'minog li?


~~~~actually it's a vegetable-the weirdest one that I've ever eaten.

Zdes' razvodyat tu samuyu "zolotuyu ribku"

"U bogatyh svoi prichudi"

Wow, a pair of "locals" :)))
So are you in North Vietnam? I see communist flags and red school ties all over the place. Are they still communist to this day and how did they let you travel there?


~All of Vietnam is still communist. Yep, they let me there quite easily-just took $65 for a visa

What do they grow here? Rice?



~Yep, these are rice fields, really beautiful
