art and exercise

One of the great things about moving to a new location is that even the most mundane activities are a little bit different and sometimes exciting. If you've been to VN you know that walking down a street can be like attempting an obstacle course. So where do people walk to get fit? Today we discovered that in District 3, it's at Tao Dan Park, which has a collection of strange and wonderful sculptures so you can combine art appreciation with getting healthy. 




Dinner tonight was at Fire Restaurant,  close to where we are staying - we had a tasty 'traditional' Viet fish hot pot - we think our waiter arrived especially for us: we were the only Tay (foreigners), he only took our order, and then left on his white Vespa once we were finished!
