Churches of Danang, Part One. I am always drawn to and take photos of the Catholic Churches in Vietnam. Most of my friends there happen to be Catholics.

This is my 12 visit to Vietnam My current mission in Vietnam is going to the home villages of all my neices and nephews that have helped me in Vietnam In 2005 I biked from Hanoi to Saigon. Probably the greatest trip I ever experienced. I look forward to returning to Vietnam and enjoying the people and land of Vietnam.

The cover photo is me biking the Red River Islands near Hanoi.... full info

re: catholic churches and recipes in Vietnam
Blogger: I am searching to find any traditional recipes that Vietnamese Catholics used to celebrate special feast days. Further, I am teaching a class on cooking with the saints, and the first destination is Vietnam. May I have permission to use some of your photos to download and show the class. Thanks for getting back to me....

springfield plantation house
Dear robert. sorry for being late to answer. I can't remember the fee to tour the house but I remember it was reasonable then. Now I don't know. I found the house with no trouble so you should be able to google it or ask locally. Yours, Kent

Danang Catholic Church
I drove past this beautiful church twice each day for 18 months, September 1967 through March 1969. The church was not open to military personnel. Thank you for having the pictures of the interior. I have hoped to return to Danang and visit the church.
