Playing in the Traffic (the river of death)

When Isaac's 16th birthday came around, because we didn't have anything much planned, we decided to do a little sight seeing. While we were roaming around, after going to the NewYork Dessert Cafe and seeing at least 5 geckos, we decided to go and check out the Saigon River which was, unfortunately, very polluted but still worth exploring (the boats were pretty cool). Running alongside the river, in between us and the dock however, was the busiest road I had ever seen in my life! Given that it was also rush hour Mum and Lena were .... reluctant to say the least. Oh, and did I mention that there were NO LIGHTS? Normally, if this was in Auckland, I wouldn't DREAM of crossing such a road, however, this was Vietnam and, since almost all the traffic consisted of motorbikes, instead of just crashing to a halt or going right over you like a car would, the torrent of motorbikes and scooters merely flows around you as you slowly walk through it. Of course, Mum and Lena were terrified, but Isaac and I were LOVING IT! Safely across, Isaac wanted to do it again only this time FILMING it! (typical) All in all it was a fun day!
