Preparing for Vietnam

I recently received confirmation that I will be working in Vietnam for the next six months.  TheHo Chi Minh National Academy for Politics and Public Administration (HCMA), in Hanoi Vietnam is contracting with me to make improvements on a curricula that I co-authored with Dr. Ingle, PSU and to write a textbook on leadership.
To start this blog, I want to post several clips of traffic in Hanoi.  It is wonderful, seemingly chaotic and actually workable on foot!  My challenge will be to learn how to negotiate it on a moped!
hmmm...can't figure out how to get utube, so here's the urls
