A
major street and roundabout in downtown Can Tho are lit up to celebrate
Tet.
Ships from all over the delta deliver plants that will go to vendors lining many of the city's streets.
Vietnamese
love the bonsai tree, and they produce some of fine artistry. Check out
this one from Saigon (in 2003), at the bottom
of the page.
This
canary melon tree will make a great gift.
The
most informative feature in this photo is the woman in the lower left
corner. Yes, the war is truly over.
The
Tet display in front of Sense Department Store downtown. For at least
a week many young ladies dress up in their traditional finest to get some
photo memories.
That
display is made entirey of veggies and nuts and seeds. Check out a close-up
shot below. Saw the same idea in Bali during this trip.
Dining
with family and friends keeps these outdoor restaurants buzzing for the
two weeks of Tet holiday. This is a screen capture of a
video I took.
On
their way home, the Tet diners will enjoy this bridge lit up with Tet
memes.
