A Christmas Day walkabout in Hoi An! (*Warning, a lot of photos)

Living in a nation that does not celebrate your holidays mainstream, it's easy to forget they are even happening. This is the case here in Central Vietnam.

No matter, I could not stay bottled up in my homestay so I went out on a walkabout with ye old camera and a zoom lens to capture lanterns and people in the streets of Hoi An on this Holiday. Here are the photos I took.

  • They celebrate Christmas only a little bit here.

  • IDK... not a fan of them, I guess its cool.. just seems like a capitalist way to travel... reminds me of cattle or something.

  • They were lovely. Almost like roses on skulls.

  • This Dark passage reminds me someplace you go to get robbed

  • I admit I did not set this one up. She was posing for someone else, is it wrong to capture images like this?

  • She just looked so dam happy.

jacuzzi, I Need Your Help!

Both @ArtTurtle and @Artopium (and perhaps soon @thejollyroger) are being needlessly downvoted by themarkymark. The more the delegator bots
are downvoted the less they will be able to upvote your content so this is an indirect attack on you! This is happening out of
pure vindictiveness as you know these bots are not spam and are powered by your steem power. Please help out by upvoting this comment
in order to counteract themarkymark's downvotes. Then please use your new downvote pool to downvote themarkeymark. He is a witness
and is abusing his power as such. Please unvote him for witness here.
He creates blacklists of thousands of Steemians he deems "inappropriate". I believe he is a majority cause for the drop in
the price in steem as he wrecklessly downvotes random content causing people to want to leave Steemit. Since he has over 500,000 SP
he can do quite a bit of damage, so it's going to take a concerted effort to get him to stop. Thank you!
