Misc Pictures from Vietnam

Here are some pictures I took around Ho Chi Minh City.




About the face masks and long sleeves...I initially thought this was due to hygiene concerns but one of my guides said it was to avoid sun exposure to keep skin lighter.  Another guide said it was to keep the dust from the street off of the face and clothes.  So I have no idea what the real reason is, but it seems less strange after almost a week in Vietnam than when I first arrived here.
