Fear Factor 1 - Hanoi Traffic, crossing the street

Hanoi, 16 Dec 2007

Everybody who has been to Hanoi warned that the traffic there is a nightmare. Ya, have to agree. So many motorbikes everywhere, horning non-stop. Ya, it's good they horn to warn you but hey, what do I have to look out for when you're getting horned at from front, back,left and right. They horn even if there's nothing to horn about.

My sis-in--law taught us the way to cross the streets in Hanoi. The trick is to walk confidently and slowly, cos this way the motorbikes will be able to avert you and not langar you.
Hey, it works you know.

Sweets shop. Plenty of those sour plums and 'gana' and stuff like that.



Local 'goreng-pisang' banana fritters. Tasted very good.
