Arrived in Vietnam last night and got to our friends this morning. Loved the train ride here and all the amazing scenery – this will sound silly, but I’m always excited when something looks like what I didn’t realize I expected it to until I see it – like women wearing the pointy straw hats … not because they’re “trying to look/dress Vietnamese”, but because we are actually in Vietnam and, uh, they ARE Vietnamese.
Was really a fun day connecting with Jason & Jill and getting a taste of their life at a University here in Quy Nhon. There’s something that will just always feel right about stepping foot on a university campus – we really love it.
First adventure in this country … learning how to navigate a bike alongside the myriads of other bikes and motorbikes and occasional taxis.
And oh yes, it’s so nice to be inhaling a sea breeze again … ahhh …

You guys should try riding one of their motorbikes. Even though they're small and not too powerful it will be totally different than a bicycle. Then imagine a motorcycle 3 times the size of their motorbikes and picture me on it. That's what you're gonna come back home to. Ain't it a pretty picture? :)
Too pretty for words.
