Vietnam - Thang Long Water Puppets

while waiting for the last meeting today,

it doesnt feel like a friday at all to me,

i officially was exhausted, standing at the guard house,

waiting for the client's interpreter to explain my visit,

by the time the meeting is over, i reflect back over the days,

4 days of business trip is just very very very tiring ...

the amount of brain juices and talking for 8 hours straight,

im dreading the reports i have to write by this weekend,

it feels even longer, like i worked 7 days straight!

when i got into the taxi, i have 3 options

1. watch movie @ ASEM Film Festival, Lang Ha Road
2. watch Thang Long Water Puppets, Dinh Tien Hoang Strt

3. stay in the upgraded hotel deluxe suite, type report + HBO

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i chose OPTION 2 -

near the Old Quarters (tourist attraction location)

tickets was VND60,000 for front rows

VND 40,000 for center to back rows

we were hungry, so we sat on the STOOL by the road,

to eat local snacks was too hungry to care abt hygiene,

Actually thanks to that Air Asia magazine

which featured a write out on this things to do in Hanoi,

(whoever wrote that deserves the credit)

cos it MOTIVATED me to make a point to watch it,

the way he/she describes the show gives me a desire,

during the show i didnt take any pic, just videos.

(if i can find that article, i will post it here for u to read too)

although i must say the seat wasnt very comfortable,

imagine if a foreigner who is tall, it must be worst,

and because its really low & small space, im on the 9th row,

still i cant see the performance clearly ARGH

it could prbbly piss somebody off someday if not already

the behind the scenes performers AFTER the show,

the instrument -Dan Bao- is new to me!

they said in the old days, when a man plays a Dan Bao,

a girl cant listen to it, if she does, she will fall in love with him!
