I'd venture out there this summer if I had money.

That's how I was envisioning such a trip.
Best option really would be to drive from St Louis take Marine Atlantic to Newfoundland. Plus I'd knock off the last remaining states east of the Rockies (by the time I do this trip it'll be the last remaining lower 48 lol) I haven't seen in Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine.

Then I'm done with the states! woot, I can move on to better things. haha

Those are purdy.  Looks so surreal.

Interesting pics, looks so exotic. Thanks Van Guy.

I might go to Vietnam this Spring, still hesitating with China which seems more attractive to me for now. More atractive but harder for language and "understanding" of the characters. Sad that traditional clothing seems to have disappeared from Vietnam according to these pics. Hope it's not like that everywhere. How do people react to the camera in general? Did the pic of the woman taken from the back has been made to show the machete or is it because some people are reticent or opposed to get their picture taken?

Michel,

you are very welcome.  go before the rains june july is the worst - rain like you have never seen - crikey....
i find you can get most things you want / need with sign language and a little translation book.
Still lots of traditional clothing - motly the older ladies - many still chew the black beetle nut - so teeth are black like coal.   Most traditional clothes are in the country side.

Kids love having picture taken - old people indifferent.  In the country side many many people cary a machete - collecting fire wood - food - whatever.  70% of people have one.  I've never had anyone refuse a picure - except some of our illegal gold miners who don't want proof they were breaking the law.

Personally i REALLY liked westernomst china along the silk road.  Very interseting culturally and foodily.
