Motorcycles, motor scooters, electric bikes, actually, anything on two wheels is the most common mode of transportation here in HCMC. I could probably talk for days about what I have seen so far being transported on these two wheels: coffins, toilets, dogs, pigs, chickens, a family of five, but, actually, I am going to talk about something I hadn't heard about, or even thought about before...Parking. How do you discretely go parking with your boyfriend on a motor bike? The answer:YOU DON'T! But here, in a city of two wheeled transport, 'parking' does happen.
My roommate and I were taking a stroll one night after dinner and happened upon 'Lover's Lane'. I must say it was kind of funny, there were about 10 motorbikes pulled over to the side of the road and there were people making out on all of them. I felt like I was being rude, like I was barging in on some private moments, but it was the only road we could take...and clearly they didn't even notice us walking by. . .
