The Icing on the Cake!

Today March 9th, as most of you know, is my birthday, so we had a little party at one of the resturants in the hotel called JASPAS. It is a really nice place and I have eaten here many times. We bought a cake from a bakery and took it with us. I had chicken fajitas and they were great. I got a a few gifts, one being a Vietnamese cd that I really like, but all in all I had a great time. The cake was great and they sung to me. The hotel also had given me a gift: a card and some chocolate. They are so nice here. I had a really great birthday so thanks for the comments and emails. I'll post later,

Happy International Woman's Day

Today March 8th, if you don't know allready, is International Woman's Day. I believe we, in the U.S., should take it more serious and celebrate women rights. I think this holiday is a great idea and women should celebrate. Think of some of the great woman suffragist or woman leaders in world history. All the women all over the world should be thankful for the rights available to them. I'll post later,

Water Puppets

The other day we went to see the water puppet show. It was amazing. It told stories about the lifestyles of the ancient Vietnamese and some legends as well. There was a traditional band playing the music for them and I found myself watching them more than the show itself. I really enjoyed it. I've got to go but when I post again it will be full of stories,

My 1st Trip in Vietnam

Yesterday I traveled to Phu Tho, which is more of an agricultural area compared to Hanoi. When we arrived to where we were going I finally got to see my sister. She was so little I couldn't believe it. I saw many other babies and the nannies that take care of them. I held my sister and a few other babies. I had a really good time and whenever I went home I fell asleep right away. Today we will get to bring my sister with us to the hotel, after our giving and receiving which is supposed to be at 3:00. I just want to thank those people who are looking at my blog, posting comments, sending me e-mails, and of course just supporting this trip and this blog. Thanks! I'll keep posting more but right now I need to eat breakfast so bye.
