    The massive flag tower in front of the Citadel. I love the children doing their exercises beneath the Vietnamese flag!: by lolo, Views[465]
         		 Just inside the walls of the Citadel in Hue, there were elephant rides on offer. Such an odd sight....behind me, there are about 4 other elephants hanging out in a field, as well. FYI, the entrance to the Forbidden Purple City (or what remains of it) can barely be seen off in the distance.: by lolo, Views[829]
         		 This was taken 'inside' the Forbidden Purple City. The complex was almost completely ruined by American bombing during the war, and now the empty land is used mostly to grow veggies and such. The structure in the background houses a theatre, where I saw some traditional Vietnamese fan and lantern dances.: by lolo, Views[536]
         		 China Beach ~ just outside of Danang. It was very cold and windy when we were there, so we only stopped for a few minutes to take some pictures. But despite the weather, the beach to the right of this photo was packed with picnic-ing families, dogs playing in the surf, and couples snuggled into blankets to watch the waves.: by lolo, Views[1001]
         		 Me at China Beach. Another self-portrait, I know. But I feel like I'm getting to be a pro at taking them!!: by lolo, Views[545]

    On the streets of Hanoi, 'taking over' for a pineapple vendor. After this, I felt obliged to buy...!: by lolo, Views[523]
         		 At the Water Puppet Theatre ~ where they inexplicably hand out paper fans along with the program. A nice touch, I guess.: by lolo, Views[513]

    Hannah and I, leaving Nha Trang bound for Hoi An. The bus rides are literally hell...I froze to death on this one, too...since I had conveniently left my fleecie behind at the hotel. duh.: by lolo, Views[446]
         		 we bought postcards from these 3 kids in Nha Trang...they are wearing Crazy Kim tshirts. Crazy Kim's is a restaurant which uses its proceeds to combat child abuse in Nha Trang...these kids get to go to school, and earn legitimate money selling postcards and books on the street in the daytime.: by lolo, Views[583]
         		 Nha Trang beach. steps from our hotel...but unfortunately, gorgeous as it was, the weather was NOT beach weather. the waves, however, were amazing.: by lolo, Views[580]
         		 Hannah and her moto driver, after a quick photo stop along the coast.: by lolo, Views[559]
         		 Getting ready to head out to his fishing boat (via basket 'ferry'!!), this fisherman requested his photo be taken! That was definatly a first.: by lolo, Views[467]
     
    Locals hard at work at the fishing village. It still amazes me that all the preconceived ideas I had about Vietnam have, in fact, been proven true....I am in love with the conical hats. The way of life here doesn't seem to have changed much over the years.: by lolo, Views[484]
         		 From the bottom of the steps, looking up...at the fishing village outside of Mui Ne.: by lolo, Views[446]
         		 Gas station in Mui Ne ~ our moto drivers had to fill up before the 45km trek out to the sand dunes!: by lolo, Views[1015]
         		 heading out towards the white sand dunes (45km from Mui Ne) we drove along this amazing stretch of coastline highway...felt like it could be anywhere along the northern california coast...(except..backward....) and then, you'd be jarred back to the reality of being in Vietnam by the herd of cows in the road, or children sitting in the lane playing games.. : by lolo, Views[566]
         		 my attempt at a self-portrait while on the moto. i like the shadow ponytail. good times.: by lolo, Views[465]
     
    white sand dunes, Mui Ne. before discovering the joys (!!?) of sand sledding. ouch.: by lolo, Views[527]
         		 the white sand dunes in Mui Ne, with our little boy tour guide leading the way.: by lolo, Views[492]
         		 the fairy stream in Mui Ne. the photo, like usual, doesn't do it justice...it was absolutely gorgeous. : by lolo, Views[527]
         		 alongside the fairy stream...standing in quicksand! fresh HOT sand is streaming in from the right of the photo, mixing with the muddy quicksand....such a wierd sensation!: by lolo, Views[1462]
         		 a small fishing hamlet just outside of Mui Ne. boats everywhere, with little round 'basket boats' operating as ferries to get the fishermen and supplies out to the fishing boats.: by lolo, Views[575]
