Your pictures are always worth a thousand words! I love it when you scour the back alleys for more market vendors selling their goods. I love that you support the people that really don't have the means to have a legal store, but, still need to support their family. Better prices and although the selection is normally less, I can live with that.

Good for you, getting out there early and speedwalking there. Good grief, don't you get hot??? It is so hot there. Does your family realize by now that you are addicted to Vietnam and may never want to move back, but, make him move there? Hehehehe... You have seamlessly adopted the culture and people in such a short time. I am not sure how much longer you will be there, but, it will already be a hard transition back!

I love your blogs. You make them so wonderful and I can tell the love you have for the people and for the country. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful culture with everyone. Thank you! I want to thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday! Each week, I post for the challenge to provide a different look of American culture, some of it over the top and some, everyday things. Sometimes, I just show places that I have gone to, all having an entry fee to qualify it for the #MarketFriday tag! It is a challenge to find new things during the pandemic, but, we still have to live, so we have been able to pull it off. It shows off how much we are alike and how different life can be. In the end, it makes it an experience that I look forward to. I appreciate the love and support you give to #MarketFriday! It Is heartwarming to see how many posts into the challenge, including you. Thank you! Truly! Your participation adds a unique flavor to the mix. I just love clicking on the link and having a new world open up, right before my very eyes! Thank you again for being a part of all this! It was lovely! I hope you have a wonderful week!
