Clicking Around This Morning
I found a couple of links to share with you. It's a very rainy morning, and I'm whiling away a bit of time before I meet R and J for lunch. Anyway, for your clicking pleasure, I present:
Here's an excellent description of how HCM City is laid out and the logic behind the many "hẻm" (lanes or alleys -- as we live on). He's got some good photos as well.
The author is an architect who has relocated to Viet Nam to work in construction as An Antidote to Burnout. Those of you that love architecture and urban design, sorenr, are gonna love his pictures and thoughts on HCM City.
Also, I've been meaning to mention for a while, that you should visit Our Man in Hanoi's blog. And to those who are contemplating visiting us here in the future, his Visiting Viet Nam entry is a must read.
