Cute kids, and then some.


The kids in Vietnam are unsurpassed in adorable, such that Alex wants to abandon this blog for one focused on these cute things. Every kid is so happy and coddled, carried constantly by doting family members. Vietnam seems a very kid-centric place. Maybe more so than Southport Corridor (heaven forbid).
These first two were spied at the pagoda on Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi.

A schoolgroup at the zoo in Ho Chi Minh.


A girl at the Temple of Literature in Hanoi, created to commemorate the 82 or so people who passed their doctorate exams. The Temple (really a grounds with a series of structures), houses 82 stone turtles with stelae on their backs. It's good luck for students to pet the heads of each and then pet their own heads, especially before taking a test.
Off to Ha Long Bay today, more pictures when we return!
