sometimes it's better not to know

let me the buck out of here

Third World countries are not known for their compassion when comes to how to transport and store animals destined to be meals. Not that Western society probably does much better behind the scenes, but I guess sometimes what you don't know doesn't hurt you. In Southeast Asia, you may see some things you might now like, especially when checking out the local markets. From frogs strung together by their webbed feet to overcrowded chickens, it's not for the squeamish or animal rights activist.

verry narrow streets

riding a motorbike anywhere in vietnam is dangerous i think. but we got talking to one guy who had just fell off his. the story goes that 50 meters down the road a dog ran out in fron of him and he fell off, gashing and grazing his elbow really bad. its even harder in hoi an with the roads been so narrow and tight.

One thing that is more annoying than a warning or a danger is the constant tide of little children comming up to you asking for money or trying to sell you things, from what I noticed more oftern that not they are working for someone else, an example was another tourist gave a little girl some money who in turn gave it to a man watching on.
