Hanoi Traffic...via timelapse photography!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oZfR...&feature=share

One of my Vietnamese students posted this video on her Facebook page. It brought a big smile to my face because it is typical Hanoi! It confirms why I do not drive in Hanoi. Those of you who have visited Hanoi may enjoy this 3 minute time-trip into Hanoi traffic and life. I especially enjoyed the early morning "shaking" ladies!

....and if you are planning to visit Hanoi, this indeed is life in this busy metropolis!

Fabulous - I loved the traffic circle in front of the Opera House!

The Ferris wheel is at the far north side of West Lake...at least I think I saw one there. They have a type of water park and some kiddie rides located there and if memory serves me correct, the Ferris wheel is part of that complex.
