Rarest Tech Deck Ever

Uncle I


Vietnam

What follows is another of the good stories Consuelo trip and this time the image is yours. Enjoy it.

"December 2003. North Vietnam. We travel aboard the legendary Russian Minsk in a period when the mud is the master. They gave me a helmet in which I'm three times and each time we make a hole, and many, the risk of losing it. We are three bikes, one is ours; one of our guides who will accompany us in this new adventure and a new guide to a future that must learn the craft. It's definitely not the period of rice paddies and lush green but the landscape is the same exciting.
We stop at the first "Autogrill" which is none other than a small restaurant in a remote village. It was no entry our triumphant: ingoffati within a few men in their heavy overcoat and the military-style cap, dark eyes, cruel, not a nod, not a word or a slight movement of the body. We sit in small chairs in front of a small table and, of course, our leadership ordered for us. Meanwhile, they continue to look. Even more obvious that there are no hard and groped cutlery to eat with chopsticks. For my companion every bite is a terrible ordeal and flying pieces of food everywhere. But they did nothing, look at us as hard as ever. Meanwhile the small television room in the bottom of the sad passing images, accompanied by a melancholic music but I would say almost the same time rigorous militaristic. "That's what" I say .... "The funeral of Ho Chi Minh." The lady who served us had heard my last words and his face lights up all over the cassette proud we put it back up again. "Help, again!" I think ... but first, a step towards our acceptance we did. In fact, the memory of North Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh is still very strong and all is friendly called "Uncle Ho".
At some point, and finally, my partner in the enterprise is able to bring a morsel of food to the mouth ... well all stand and clap their hands. Ovation. Friendship made?
"A people who courageously opposed French domination for more than eighty years
, a people who fought alongside the Allies against the Fascists during these last years, such people must be free and independent "Ho Chi Minh - Declaration of ' Independence of Vietnam "
