Colo(u)r My World

The husband has gone to Thien Mu Pagoda with the German professor who departs tomorrow and some Vietnamese students. Because the trip there is in an open boat on the river, it is quite cool today, and I visited Thien Mu three years ago and have three more weeks in which to visit it again, I elected to stay inside and try to bid my "airplane cold" farewell. In lieu of lengthy verbiage, I offer a smattering of some of the colo(u)r of the last week and a half.

Are you sure those are limes? Don't forget the green oranges we saw last time.
