| a distinguished woman riding the old fashion-way. Too bad those days are gone!
Yesterday I had an adventure all by myself (since the boys were content to play soccer...again....all afternoon...) I took my little Yamaha moto across the Can Tho River on the commuter ferry (for bikes, peds and motos) and toured around the intimate, shady lanes of the villages across from the main city center of Can Tho. It was an eye-full! I cruised around dodging this and that for 10-15 miles and then returned across the river home. Here are a few photos for you to get the feeling of my travels. I was amused during my trip because everyone I passed would yell..."Hello!" "Hello"..."Hello"...as I wizzed by...especially at 4:15pm when the kids were coming home in packs of 10 from school. One person yelled..."Hollywood!" at me and I think he thought I was a movie star....having my Eat, Pray, Love-moment in Vietnam. Who knows what they must think when they see a white woman, with gray hair and blue eyes, on a motorbike driving around their rabbit-warren neighborhoods. It was like Watership Down on a motorbike!
