The Vietnamese have an uncanny way of being able to tell when it’s about to rain and carry plastic ponchos under the seats of their bikes. As the heavens open, and you’re caught unawares, you can do nothing but stand there, soggy and marvel at them all zooming around, undeterred by the torrential downpour.
Taken in Saigon, Vietnam.
