My dad rides on the back of his friend's scooter. I like this photo because my dad is so excited to be hanging out with his friends from Vietnam again. It's crazy that he is still good friends with his friends from high school (my mom is the same with her friends).
On the boat out into the ocean to scatter my grandparents' ashes.
The scene right outside my uncle's (my dad's first cousin) house in Cai Be (located in the rural Mekong delta region), which also happens to be the house where my dad was born. My uncle owns a factory (located right next to his house) that makes dried longan, and they get tons of longan shipped into the factory every day.
The artist Thanh Chuong's villa located near Hanoi. It features really cool contemporary and traditional Vietnamese architecture. It's a peaceful place, with a lot of trees and plants.
A busy street in Saigon. Notice the power cables and how they are crazily bunched up.
A pagoda in Northern Vietnam that is renowned for its arches.
The Bui Family Tree located in the Bui family pagoda in Ha Nam, Vietnam. My mom's name is on the last line, along with the names of all her first cousins on her dad's side. She has a LOT of first cousins.
Oily street food in Hanoi. So good!

Huge Buddha statues in a pagoda we visited in Northern Vietnam.
The landscape in Northern Vietnam, which has beautiful mountain ranges.
A look at Hanoi from the sky. Notice how gray it is... it's not because of rainy weather, but because of the smog and pollution in the city.
nice pic!
