Crossing_the_street.jpgVietnam: 2012 visit69 viewsCrossing the street: This is the correct way to cross the street in Saigon (now called Ho Chi Minh City). Look straight ahead and keep moving. Don't stop or make any sudden movements, and all those vehicles WILL miss you. It takes a little time to get used to it, and a lot of faith, but it works. I think the Vietnamese have only one traffic rule: Try not to run over the tourists.
