9/14 Late Night Coffee Shop

Went to a Cafe to meet a student.  A great little secret next to my house - or secret to me and my student.  Its hard to find I guess as I waited and waited.  Turns out he couldn't find it, so I sat and watched.  Watched as everyone drank their sweet avocado shakes and cafe sua da.  Watched as they played Vietnamese love ballads to animal documentaries - first a gazelle giving birth and then a cheetah being skewered by a buffalo both very graphic.  More and more families and groups of people showed up and the music got louder with more techno sans the gory animal movies thank god;). I sat in relative anonymity enjoying the huge waterfalls and beautiful greenery.  Gotta love the coffee shops in Saigon;)!
