            This towering home provides visitors an example of life for people who lived within jungle environments. The houses were constructed at such heights in order to maintain a piece of mind from wild and naughty animals at night, or even bothersome souls from across the way. The entrance to the home features four sets of ungodly steep stairs, which were crafted from wood. Inside, the ceiling was beyond comprehension- it went over our heads. There's more ceiling volume than floor space. Right to left: Mason, Colby, and Cody.
            The outdoors section of the museum featured an open grounds arrangement of rural and past Vietnamese life. As seen in this photo, a farmer monitors the crops with the assistance of two cranes. Nifty. I thought the birds were a charming touch to the scene.
            This flower cluster is one of my favourites from Vietnam. What an artistic and geometric composition of pentagonal flowers. Just look at it! There's a smart curvature among each of the petals, and the larger leaves of from the tree even compose a fan design.
            As seen from a window, a badling of ducks visiting the museum as well. There was a third before the photo was taken; it waddled behind the bushes and into the water.
