In short, a huge party and chaos in the traffic

I’ve included an image of Hanoi from my balcony. Is it the calm before the storm?

Hanoi Just Before The Birthday Party Starts

The lake with the small boats is called Truc Bach lake and this is the lake where senator John McCain was shot down during the Vietnam war. The lake in the distance is the East West Lake or Tay Ho in Vietnamese.

I’m blessed with a fantastic view over Hanoi where i can see both Truc Bach and Tay Ho (west lake) from my balcony. The sunsets are just amazing and I can see it almost every day.

This image is smoking fresh, just taken minutes ago from my balcony. I can still almost see this sunset by looking out from my window

Sunset over Truc Bach and Tay Ho

I stitched together two images into a panorama.
