I'm sorry to have left this so long unanswered. I think I'm falling in love with the whole idea of calendars, and how humans mark the year. So many ways - so many New Years! (Am I right in thinking that it's Hebrew calendar New Year now? Best wishes for your year! May it be a hundred times better than the one just past.)
The Vietnamese intercalary month isn't always summer - it depends of the times (of solstices etc) and the seasons (the old seasons, which I don't even know the names of, but along the lines of summer, winter etc, but with more of them).
