Nothing says Happy Holidays like Uncle Ho!!!

Xin chao-Hello
again!
The picture above was taken at an ordinary park in the city, it is pretty typical and random in this city named for "Uncle Ho". He really is a beloved character and so are the symbols on the flags.

John and I are still adjusting a little at a time. I will NEVER eat fish heads or frog, call me crazy!!...but as most of you know all of that works just fine for John.

Our main entertainment right now is counting down the days when our boys will arrive for the Christmas holidays

Tam biet for now!

lee-unh laak nya...keep in touch!

Saigon Patti over and (peace) out!




Ho Chi Minh with the kids and bronzed!!

1:00 in the afternoon on a Tuesday...what is wrong with this picture?
Well maybe you guessed it! Shouldn't these kids be in school?
