Marble Mountain on the way to HoiAn
2008.12.01
... Good morning VietNam!
WTF? Clean my foot? No idea... Had to throw it in though. |
The road to Marble Mountain is a windy one.
|
A giant marble Buddha marks the entrance to a cave temple
|
The carving on the wall
|
|
Entering a cave temple and the Indiana Jones song begins to play in my head on a nonstop loop
|
... daa da da daaaa, daa da daaaaaaa, daa da da daaaaa, daa da daa daa daa...
|
bigger than my hand and faster than lightning
|
|
|
|
great views from atop the mountain
|
|
a marble cavern is a home for non worshipers as well
|
... although this owl seems to be paying respect
|
|
|
the carvings in the area are exquisite
|
As the piece is created
|
|
|
The streets are loaded with marble shops and heavy pushers
|
"Harro!"
|
Welcome to Hoi An!
First impression: Lovely~ |
Red Ho Chi Minh sits on yellow balcony
|
The French influence is heavier here than anywhere I've seen yet
|
The street scene is perfect for dinner
|
... and now wandering the streets,
taking in the night sights, second bottle of Da Lat red in hand, take note: Drunk men shouldn't enter a Vietnamese cobbler. They've got a special knack when it comes to persuasion... |
... so with that said,
Here I am drunkenly getting fitted for shoes. The blur is perfect! It still makes me laugh~ |
When night comes Hoi An river overruns flooding the streets. Not an uncommon sight.
