The FISH

Mac,
My trip to Halong Bay was fun. There were lots of pearls all over the place and lots of sea food that you usually wouldn't see like octopus, shrimp, and there was some fish there that cost $50 for one fish. My dad accidentally bought one. I'll tell you how he accidentally bought it. He was going to buy one but the lady who was with us didn't translate the price fast enough so they killed the fish before he knew how much and then since they already killed it he had to buy it...
Love, Titus

Poor Bryce. Almost had his vacation ruined. It was a great scam (for their part). That stupid fish cost about 1/5th of the whole trip. We ate every last piece of that fish. It doesn't look like we enjoyed it but it was pretty good.

Hello Battisti's of the East!!!

We certainly miss you in the flesh but I must say, it's been very nice to hear so much about your extended excursion. it's as if you are more in touch than ever.

Glad to hear you are taking in the sites and culinary experiences (not that you have a choice).

Hey Bryce,

STEP AWAY FROM THE FISH!!! :oP

Hugs to all,

Cat, Mac and Len

Titus looks a lot like Bryce in that picture. Maybe because I can imagine Bryce with that same sort of glum look after The Fish Incident.
Just remind yourself how much you are usually saving on food costs by eating in Vietnam, and maybe it will make you feel better.
