Vietnam!

Vietnam has exceeded both Lucy and my expectations. It is clean, fun, and most of all- friendly! We have been meeting so many people, foreign and local.
They drive on the right side of the road here.. so in some ways its been easier.. but its also been hard to get used to again. The name of their currency is a bit fun/funny... as I can't help but laugh everytime Lucy exclaims "I really need to get some dong."
Other things that are different-- Thousands and thousands of motorbikes everywhere.. its like a sea of moving heads. The beaches so far don't compare to Thailand.. but they're still nice.
Other odd tidbits:
Baby chairs and tables to eat. Seems to be the norm for most locals.. beats their normal squatting. It had to have started as just another cheap short cut.. money and efficiency for moving around. Quite a funny sight though.. we've only gotten stuck on them a few times.
Reading this amazing book called "When heaven and earth Changed places." As they not only copy fake DVD's and clothes, they also copy books. Today we even saw a fake Ipod.. not even close. I finally broke down and bought fake IPOD speakers though, 8$ later.
