Two girls in bikinis dance atop three Hondas, celebrating Vietnam’s win against Singapore in the SEA Games Football semi-finals.

Yesterday, Vietnam beat Cambodia to advance to the semifinals. This is the scene directly outside my bedroom window, looking down on Tran Phu street at midnight last night. I was finally able to get to sleep around two o’clock, but awakened before six o’clock this morning by a marching brass funeral band.

crossing the street

Cossing Nguyen Trai Street last night. There was more traffic than usual because Vietnam beat Cambodia and is headed to the semifinals next week.

Here’s view from my window last night. This is the street I must cross to get to the rib shop. Music is “Flight of the Bumblebee” performed by Rockapella.

As per Damon‘s recommendation, I ventured further afield for dinner last night – to all the way across the street – for a plate of chiên sườn xối mỡ. Half a rack of deep-fried back ribs on a bed of fried rice, served with a nice healthy salad. All for $1.35.
