Eat Pho

This street market was held to mark the Chinese New Year.
Although the New Year is officially on February 8, I quote
from chinahighlights.com

"Traditionally celebrations start much earlier than Chinese New Year's Eve. Some people start to celebrate three weeks before, the 8th day of the twelfth Chinese month (January 16, 2016; 腊八 Làbā /laa-baa/ '12th lunar month + 8'). More people celebrate from the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month (January 31, 2016). They start to clean the house to welcome a new year from then"

The token red lantern in the Extra brightened a gloomy day.

We ate a tub of Pho from the Vietnamese stall in the foreground.
