We arrived a few hours ago and are so glad to be off the plane. An Chi was a real trooper considering how long she had to sit in those airplane seats. We were all loopy by the time we got to Seoul and a green tea ice cream frapp from Starbucks set An Chi right. From being up in the air for so many hours, a horrifying new phenomenon has happened to me - my ankles swelled up and by the time we landed in HCMC, I had CANKLES! Oh the horror.
We are staying in the backpacker part of Ho Chi Minh city near the Ben Thanh market. Needless to say, shopping will be part of tomorrow's plans. Also we have a press conference tmorrow afternoon and I believe several news organizations will be there to talk and ask up about the Aid Expedition.
It's very HOT here and I must say that I am so thankful to the person who invented air conditioning.
It's late and we are all nodding off. Looking forward to a bowl of pho and a cafe sua da for breakfast.
Final Thoughts and Sincere Thanks!
