getting ready to hit the airport for the dreary ride home. I'll leave you with one final image of the streets of downtown Saigon. Note that everyone here rides scooters, old and young, men and ladies. I am beginning to see a pattern to the driving here, but not one I can fully comprehend. Everyone is courteous to the other driver so all you do is pull out in front of oncoming traffic and they somehow manage to not hit you.

Grandma, can I have a helmet? It's ok honey, you sit on the front edge of the seat, wear these safety glasses and I'll strap you to me!

I had 4 people on my little 49cc Yamaha moped once. The fully inflated tires looked flat and it would only do 6 mph. They must have the tune up over there.

yeah, I think some of them for sure. Still amazes me the way traffic flows, it works but it still confuses me as to how people aren't getting creamed as much as you'd think. I did see a handful of accidents but nothing serious.
