Vietnam (Day 2)

DAY 2: buddhis temple- mekong river - island tour - small river ride - eggshell art factory - city centre 

(captions-under pictures)
 so well quite obvious, the temple.really really smoky but cool  i guess

bus ride to mekong river with 2 tiny boxes of erm delicious stuff tour guide gave us[:

ok so this is like the farm of the local people when we pass by on bus
do you see the 2 little house like thingys nearest to the picture? in the foreground
its actually tombs== they keep their dead family members there. i know damn scary.
its like : wow im gonna go plant some seeds and say hi to my dead grandmother on the way

 and another one.theres full of it there!

guess whats this. the amazing..
wonderful...
life giving...
amazing...
deep historical value..
MEKONG RIVER.and yes its really dirty


boat ride to the island there 

 to my surprise we went to a like full of bees place to have some tea==
and it was made of their honey
so i literally had like 3 to 4 bees flying around me since i was sitting nearest to the honey

the yellow thing at the table.the honey. 
me trying to fake enjoy the lovely tea while being "attacked" by bees


 lots of sweets to buy . i saw quite alot of singapore students who came to visit.cool

 vietnam had these special fruits that singapore doesn have.
its called niu2nai3guo3.for those who cant read chinese pin1 yi1

 2 beautiful and a old distracted auntie singing for us while we eat our fruits
and we have to tip them even though we didn ask for it==

going for the boat ride! 




lunch.awesome fish


thats like actually rice.super amazing



egg shell artwork factory its amazing how they can patiently stick such small pieces of egg shells onto a black board in a dark environment.
