Wednesday, we took another 3 hour bus ride to Hoa Lu-Tam Coc, the very first capital of Vietnam. It was moved to Hanoi 1,000 years ago. This year marks the 1,000 year anniversary of Hanoi as the capital of Vietnam.
A young man and older lady took us down this river and through caves. Ignore the huge timestamp in the photo. I basically took over Rhonda's camera after the incident with mine, but all the pictures have this timestamp and this one just couldn't be edited out. Kinda looks like a picture from the 90s, right?
That night, we arrived back in Hanoi to watch the madness that was Children's Day. There were so many people out with their kids on motorbikes. It was insane.
Yeah. All motorbikes. They have Children's Day in Korea also. Why don't we have this in the states? It looks like so much fun.
Wow, so many people gathered on the site by motorbike.
ReplyDeleteIt looks nice and impressive cultural event photo.
I know concept of children's day because I'm a Korean.
But, it is unusual scene to me.
Yet,
I guess that you were choked by exhaust gas smell.
How did you feel? Did you need some fresh air?
Surprisingly, no, I didn't need fresh air. But it was intimidating to cross the street at first. Then, you just go for it.
