Gonna try to make this a short post since NHL playoffs are starting and I need to make my pool picks. I wouldn’t be a good Canadian boy if I didn’t let hockey take top priority even here on the other side of the world.
I’ve mentioned earlier in this blog how crazy the motorbike driving is in Vietnam. Equally insane is the way people transport goods around town. For those who haven’t been to Asia and witnessed these high-speed balancing acts first-hand, consider this: what if all of a sudden your car was replaced with a chintzy little motorbike? No trunk. No back seat. Chances are you don’t even have bungee cords on hand. (Great on gas, though!). How would you get your clubs to and from the golf course? How would you get that full propane tank home for tonight’s BBQ? How would you help Elise and me move to our new apartment when we get back from this trip? (That reminds me, you’re all on the hook to help us move next month). Check out the pics below. Unfortunately, we weren’t quick enough to capture some of the funniest things we saw strapped to a motorbike, like the twenty live, squawking ducks and the four caged dogs – all on their way to become dinner, no doubt. My all-time favourite, though, has gotta be the family that mistakes their 100 cc motorbike for a minivan. Two adults and two children on a motorbike? What could possibly go wrong?
