CAUTION: some of the following blog contents are decidedly girly We finished off the Hue area with an excellent boat ride down the Perfume River (saw the fantastic tomb of Minh Mang and breathtaking Thien Mu Pagoda and monastery) before moving on to our latest stop, Hoi An, a few hours away still in the central part of Vietnam.

Hey girls! I AM SOOOOOO JEALOUS RIGHT NOW! WOW! Can't believe you are going to bring back that many vietnamese clothes - and custom made I might add... du temps bien investi, ça c'est certain! The pics are amazing, I loved the ones from the My Son site... incredible! Guess you're gonna have so much fun at Angkor Wat... oh, I wish I could be there with you... :( Well, I've decided that after my belly-dance classes, I will start to learn the Cham dance... think Erik would enjoy... lol

What about the food
I can't believe big daddy hasn't commented on the fact that you have not mentioned food once since you arrived in Vietnam, and now you are in Cambodia! How is the food in Vietnam? Do the Vietnamese restaurants in our city truly reflect the Vietnamese cuisine? Can't wait to visit this country. Looks beautiful, as per your pics. mommy

Sad time for travellers
It is soo sad to hear (actually not hear therefore must not be) that you are not eating. I assume that Pho is an exprt item and not available. Maybe you found a stash of Kraft dinner? I have been anxiously awaiting any word on food but a dearth of silence. Insigh please! I like the idea of saving shopping until the end of the journey and then get stuff that is usable for future travels. Don't have to carry it for a long time and everything fits to a T (or to a Lyla). Can't wait to see the loot! I was wondering if there are remnants of French language or customs, especially in the cities? Keep up the memory gathering!
