Well the new year season is over here finally. Now things can get back to normal, which is great as I miss quite a few of my friends in the uni. For those who are not aware, Tet is a time to return to your family and that means many of the people in my office to out of town for the 10 day teachers break. Well on new year's eve there were fireworks in town and they where quite a nice surprise as I hadn't seen any fireworks for a while.
Prior to Tet, the supermarket complex opened opposite the biggest hotel in town. It now provides a steady flow of cheese, processed meat, cold weather fruits, and condiments into our diets. However, I noticed that it did not open much at all, and it seemed to just close everytime I went there until yesterday. When I was there yesterday I observed something which I have seen only in Viet Nam - shops that never restock. Let's hope that it is only because of the holiday break as the flow of cheese maybe too much to lose at the moment.
