We're Here!!

We are in Vietnam!! It's exactly like the movies that I watched. It is a beautiful country. We left Tuesday night from LA at 1:15am and after a 13 hour flight we landed in Taipei, Taiwain for a two hour layover and then flew into Hanoi. The flight didn't seem that long because I slept most of the way. They fed us twice on the first plane and once on the second plane and then they took us out for lunch once we got to Hanoi. We met our field director, she is very nice and has helped us out alot. We checked into a hotel and spent last night there. Today we are at Sandy's house until 4:30pm and then we are splitting up. The Vinh team is leaving and the Hanoi team is going to be set up in our permanent hotel. Monday we start teaching. Today we went to the Ho Chi Minh Mausolem which was closed but it was nice to just walk around. We had fresh cocunut milk right off the street and sugarcane juice and lots of different fruit--rambuttan and other stuff. So far, so good, stomach wise. I'll upload more pictures as soon as I can.
