My lucky day
January 17, 2008
Apparently it’s good luck in Vietnamese culture to run into a funeral (they say that people are only allowed to be buried on auspicious days so if you run into a funeral it must be auspicious for you). I guess today was my lucky day. One of the neighbors who lives a few houses down from our hotel recently died. (You can tell by the constant chanting on the PA over the street… and by the people dressed in all white, the color of no life… and by the funeral bier.)
