Nooo....but the girl looks familiar....  As does the traffic congestion. Only place in the world I've ever been that traffic in both directions fill the entire street at a traffic light. Honest - both sides all the way across all lanes of the street. Somehow, when the light turns green they get it all sorted out but I don't know how.... |

Funny you should mention the traffic in Saigon. I made a 10 minute film from the front seat in a cyclo. Every second of it shows us heading directly into on-coming traffic. It was very scary. Years later, I happened to be Hanoi when it got its first traffic light. I don't think it changed the flow of traffic a bit.

Didn't get to Saigon but once that wasn't combat related ( three eagle flights Cholon race track ) but what stood out for me was a funeral , the hearse was a great big red vichcle with glided dragons on it and there were people riding on top and the sides and all sorts of banners , I'm thinking whoever was inside must have been a big shot .
