Hanoi in an afternoon

It’s very hot today. This time last week, the weather was so beautiful that girls in my office even talked about Autumn as if it was coming soon. But it’s damn hot today, which reminds me that i haven’t uploaded the pics taken last Sunday.

Such a nice Sunday it was. The weather was cool. Something urged me to go to the Old Quarter alone that day and so did I.

Except sometimes, Hanoi is nice lah . Life is great lah ^^

Many couples came here to take wedding photos. Photographers kept telling them how to smile, how to pose and even how to put nose to nose, …. which I did not like much. Also, these young husbands and wives kept shying when so many people looked at them and even took pictures like me. LOL
They kept blushing

I took this picture as I intended to take the picture of a group of young mute ” talking” but I was afraid that was rude, so only took when they left. Actually this was the first time I saw a big group of the mute talking. There was about 10 boys and girls. I did not know what they were talking but seem that they were discussing what to do/ go/eat… Although they spoke nothing  the way/ speed they used their fingers and body showed that they all were very happy and excited ^^. And they were noisy, actually =))
The little girl first visited capital. So envious :))
The little girl first visited capital with her parents ( they were very young) but she seemed tired. There were many family like this, visiting Hanoi in the summer, wearing nice clothes and taking pictures :))
