VIETNAM ~Scootering around Saigon ~

...Interesting postcard nr2...it seems to be that hiring a scooter is the best way to see Vietnam...⁀⊙﹏☉⁀... Thaaaaaaanks a lot Jobbo !!

Vietnam has a total motorbike/scooter culture and the number of people riding around on these things is a sight in and of itself.

It is is the largest international market for this iconic Italian scooter. "Vespa is a status symbol that you can take with you wherever you go.”

In the background you see a propaganda poster commemorating the Viet Minh's victory at Dien Bien Phu.
