Sitting outside Go2 Bar in Ho Chi Minh city - 2010

So here I am once again after 2 years, sitting outside the trendy Go2 bar in Saigon, enjoying a nice refreshing lemon drink whilst watching traditional street life.
Look out for :-
12 sec - Car reversing into busy crossing.
40 sec - Hawker selling fake DVD's.
1.18 sec - Pretty lady walking by.
1.39 sec - Cycle rickshaw passing by.
2.02 sec - Lady carrying food in two buckets that hang from on stick on her shoulders. Quite common sight to see in Vietnam.
2.40 sec - Cycle rickshaw carrying heavy goods.
2.50 sec - Hawker selling sunglasses.
3.03 sec - Another hawker selling many interesting items.
4.28 sec - Scooter rider has near miss with another vehicle
5.10 sec - Western tourist passing by.
5.40 sec - Owner of Go2 Bar.
7.00 sec - Cycle rider with many heavy goods.
7.32 sec - Hand powered bicycle.
8.29 sec - Hawker selling silk scarves.

It is a completely different experience than sitting outside a global coffee shop in a Western country.
