In Vietnam

I am now in Vietnam, lying in bed and hoping that no more squalling outside my window occurs. It started at about 5 this moribund which was really okay because I needed to turn down the ac unit anyway, but god there are some weird birds here!

I found out last night that for meals I can either have my own personal chef go to the market, buy and make anything I want; can go out to eat, or go to the university cantina (I love how her and in France they call it a Cantina like were in a western or something!).

Speaking of westerns, I cannot wait to post a photo of the streets of ho chi Minh city! It looks like a movie set and everyone is part of a different, auspicious movie. Last nigh we drove through and saw the open air pool halls, the dimly lit back alleys and the wrest restaurants aglow with people.. Mostly men. The buildings were like a see of different color unlike anything I'd ever seen before. There's a roundabout just outside my house here, maybe I can capture a photo of it to share with you.

First meal in: three hours!
