Original title: "VN Life" The photo probably shows celebrations for Tết Trung Thu. There is a large table in the foreground with small plastic bags on it (possibly containing candy or some other fetival favor). There is a lion dance being performed in tha background and a child in a mask dancing. There are children watching the dance. The photo appears to be tacken around dusk, as the streetlight in the background appears to be on. Several South Vietnamese flags fly in the background.
