Hanoi is still as busy as when I was last here in 2000, but the ratio of motorcycles to bicycles has continued to rise and the traffic is every bit as chaotic as it used to be. Somehow it all still works and nobody seems to get knocked down even though they don't seemed to have decided which side of the road to drive on yet! Traffic comes from everywhere at junctions and it seems that an accident is inevitable, but it doesn't (often) happen! The telephone wiring is still every bit as tidy as before and the old town is still as interesting as ever.
