To and From the Orphanage at Vung Tau
These photos were taken on the road between Ho Chi Minh City and Vung Tau (where the orphanage is). Most (or all) of these were taken from a moving vehicle, so forgive the framing on some. All dates and times are EST (I believe -12 from local time.)

Family Transportation
Motorbikes are the major form of transportation here, even for families. Bikes carrying 3 or 4 people like this one are not uncommon, nor are children sitting on the front seat. Notice the bike in the background moving in opposition - drivers are supposed to drive on the right, but this is pretty much considered a suggestion. In actuality, drivers drive wherever it is convenient to get where they are going.
