Water Puppets

 We saw the water puppets last time we were in Hanoi ( 2009) and the experience marked us so much that we vowed never to see them again.

However, old age brings with it a degree of forgetfulness and so it was that we found ourselves once more in the Water Puppet Theatre. 

It was as impenetrable as ever, despite this time having a programme allegedly listing what was going on.

It didn't help that the narration was in Vietnamese only.

Once again I mistook the 'fox chasing duck' for a 'tabby cat grabbing a fish', while JB thought it was a squirrel with possibly a fish, though he can't be certain. 

Judge for yourselves....( sound up for the videos please.  We had to listen to it, so I don't see why you shouldn't too)

  1. Oh boy ! I guess that had to happen since we didn't heed our better judgment 😅
