The Tet Blues

So today is the first day of the Vietnamese New Year, or Tet. This year is the Year of the Buffalo - my year!

Alas, everybody leaves town for the holiday and most of the businesses shut down. I'll have to find a way to pass the time until things start up again.

On the plus side, the streets are relatively peaceful and there are flowers all along Nguyen Hue.
