things people carry on motorcycles #4

Just because it's been a long time since we've had some of these and they are still amazing at times...
This guy is carrying a special tree for Tet (Vietnamese New Year) - you can see many people riding around town with similar sized trees strapped to the back of their bikes!)
We were stuck in the traffic jam (not unusual), and I noticed this man's nice ceramic pot - it probably weighs 20-30kg. And next to him someone taking their hat stand home. I have yet to photograph the guys who carry 10 or so of these silver stands on the back of their bikes.
I think this guy is carrying sugar cane, which will go to the market and be cut up and eaten, or pressed for sugar cane juice (very very sweet!)
