Further Dispatches from The War On Xmas

I was going to title this post Parks & Rec, as we wandered through Lodhi Park, with all it's tombs and mosques, before repairing to the Lodhi Gardens Restaurant for a delicious, more-Middle Eastern-than-Indian repast, but the best picture on the phone was this one.

Longtime readers will recall the weirdness that is Xmas in Saigon, and this is no different, though perhaps more understated: a simple tree, gifts, an offering of bright orange flowers, and wads of cotton gauze pulled amongst the foliage. Our hotel had a similar display until this morning. Which should serve as a reminder to all of you: take it down before it becomes a fire hazard.
