Aha! Success! I bought a card reader for $10.00 and I'm in business now. Most of the computers in the internet cafes and in my hotel are pretty old. They don't have built in card readers but some do have external ports. So here it goes. Enjoy

Squatting and Eating
Hi Flo, Great to hear that you've travelled safely to Vietnam! Just one comment on the squatting issue, if I remember correctly from the 70's (remember the boat people?), the elders of this group don't have very lovely looking hip joints. We just thought they didn't have enough calcium in their Asian diets, but maybe it's the squatting! Also maybe those roung peaked hats would be a good alternative to golf visors! Would certainly protect us from the sun! Take care Shell

Great to hear from you Shelley! For anyone reading her comment, Shelley is an x-ray technician and knows of what she speaks. She's also my golfing buddy and you know I might just bring some of those hats for our rounds at Ladies League this year.
