HCM go red!


 Ho Chi Minh lays here in state, it's dark, cool and a little strange (ghoulish). 4 soldiers stand at his glass encased tomb at attention, very somber. The makeup is great, very lifelike. You can't take pictures, they collect your camera that you can get after leaving the building. I didn't see any postcards for sale either. Hushed silence was to be observed the whole time in the building, did I say it was very strict? Meanwhile the house he lived in on stilts was lovely. All of that should be on the Picasa site. http://picasaweb.google.com/ganeshagirlnyc/Hanoi09#
