Can I say just one more time that we loved our trip south to Vinh City. The wide streets, tree lined boulevards, hillsides, and pine forests. Wonderful and welcoming people. Seeing some things that appear to be the same throughout Vietnam... and some things that are different. Here are some snapshots from the phones.
We went to a pagoda on the top of a small mountain. The mountain was covered with meticulously planted pine trees that helped maintain an unbelievably peaceful atmosphere in the pagoda. Titus and Maggie were most impressed with this carving. As far as they're concerned its a liger. See the tiny mane?
We went to another amusement park. There were huge insects all over and the kids wanted their picture taken on each one.
The beach was great. There weren't very many people there but the ones who were there all wanted to take pictures of the crazy American kids who were swimming in such "cold" weather.
A nice walk we wen t on in the hilly forest.
Hieu's dad gave Enzo this do rag with Texas written over the top. We felt even more conspicuous while he was wearing it (if that's possible). Enzo loved this old woman and she loved him. She was tiny and bent and insisted on holding him. They almost fell down together because he made her so top heavy. They had to make do with alternative forms of bonding. Mostly Enzo pulled on her face while she smiled at him.

Oh wow, that is so funny about the old woman. So sweet and those insects are crazy! That's so hilarious that the kids were getting there picture taken at the beach. I thought all kids didn't care about the weather if they could swim....Have a great Thanksgiving!!!
