Chilli Cold Cold Cold

The freezing north west wind is coming to Hanoi giving everyone the chance to dress up in their winter clothes. This is one of the best time in Hanoi to sit down on the paverment watching people wandering around. I am from the south so that I can't really stand this cold. Of course, I am used to it after over 3 years living here but, it seems to get colder every year in degrees. I always wear heaps of clothes, gloves, hat and jackets but I still feel cold. Is that weird?

Yes, I know that and I can't do anything more to overcome the chill.

But I love cold Beer.

the temp is just 10C which is relatively higher than non-tropical countries but the reason why hanoi is chilly is because of the wind, which would actually have an effect temp of around 5C only :D
