We saw lots of French colonial buildings from the late 1800 and early 1900’s. The store fronts are very narrow and the buildings long. This was to keep the property taxes down as based on frontage meters. The rain held off until the end of our tour. We only got a little wet. The real rain came tonight and is most likely the start of the typhoon that is hitting the coast. It is hard to take a bicycle taxi ride when surrounded by motorbikes and cars going crazy in the street. No one here seems to use any traffic lights or rules. The motorbikes at the few stop lights that were observed looked like a line up to start a race.
