I admire women in developing countries. They work so hard without all the luxuries we have in the west. On top of that, they can maintain an appearance of cleanliness and are often demure. The following are photographs I took at Dong Ba Market in Huế.

In 2013, we visited Vietnam and part of that extraordinary country is Ha Long Bay. It rained and rained; we encountered some trickery on the boat we were travelling on as well. Despite all this we still managed to see what a beautiful place Ha Long Bay is.

If you visit Hanoi, always wake before sunrise, grab your camera and go for a walk around the city’s Lake, Hồ Hoàn Kiếm. You will be rewarded for sure. I was not prepared, only armed with compact, but I managed to snap the odd one. Added for Ailsa’s Graceful
