Cool photos.

Requesting red light district pictures. Thanks.
Only if they start eating some bizarre things.

Updated day 5. More interesting things as promised.
We're off to a trip so I don't know if I'll have time for updates.

I know it is probably just a pallet gun, but I find it incredible that you can go hunting with a rifle around residential neighborhoods in Vietnam and no one cared.

Nice pictures though. Thanks for sharing. It does feel like watching Bizarre Foods.

My uncle knows everyone there and asks permission first. Knowing the cops also helps a little bit.

I just got back from my trip to Nha Trang and Da Nang and another special dish is being prepared for dinner. My aunt said that my uncle bought it. It was shot in the neck and bought home in a bag. She said it's not from this area and it lives in deep forest. She thinks it's "con ho" which translates to tiger but it was black. I got home too late to see the thing whole; it's all meat and bones now. I'll try to get more info from my uncle and exactly what it is.
