Original Toronto Star caption: Smiling girls march in one of the many green parks of Hanoi; practising for the big parade on May Day; the world-wide Communist holiday. Some of the big parks surround lakes that are too polluted for swimming but allow couples to row about in little boats. And all the parks provide benches under trees where lovers meet. Throughout Hanoi there's an air of cheerful discipline and a sense of direction.
