Still Life with Dhong


This was the opposite of the Ho Chi Minh mausoleum. The pagoda was packed with people praying and curious onlookers like myself trying to get some idea of what was happening. I will send a sound bite from this and you can get a little bit of it. The mausoleum was so stark and grave (no pun intended) and well, communist. Having never been to a communist or formerly communist country, it's really interesting. Will post about that and a last look at Hanoi old quarter traffic at night, complete with sound. All coming soon. Now in Hue, much quieter smaller place. Just got to the hotel, so nothing to say yet.
