Christmas is coming!

As good Americans, we know that the Christmas season officially begins the week of Thanksgiving, though of course Real Americans start the week after Halloween. In Hanoi, the signs of the season are limited, but they are here. At Big C supermarket, dozens of Vietnamese were crowding around the cheesy Christmas display to have their pictures taken. And there are a plethora of gifts:

Hello Kitty Angel phone!

Hello Kitty shoe phone!

Freedom Fry phone!

Pleasant Goat inflatable party wands!

Best of all, Pleasant Goat slippers!!

God bless us, every one!
