Chúc Mừng Năm Mới! That's 'Happy New Year' in Vietnamese! This morning when I hit the streets it was completely silent! Everyone was at home celebrating the first day of the new year.

For me being able to see Hanoi in such a rare state was quite special...
In the afternoon Chi was kind enough to involve me in a Vietnamese New Year Tradition : A visit to the Buddhist Temple. We went to three different temples in the afternoon. This one was my favorite:
Another intriguing alleyway on the walk home - There are so many!
