Hey everyone...
What happened to all the great comments? I guess you are getting tired of our long descriptions of how much fun we are having....
Last night tonight in Vietnam. Mixed feelings, and can't believe our vacation is coming close to an end.
Took a one day tour to the Mekong Delta today. It was quite interesting to see how some things like rice paper and coconut candies were made. Also made us glad that we were born in Canada. The poverty is pretty bad in this part of the world. Too bad I don't know how to upload my pics here, we'll do that when we get home.

Saw some monkeys and snakes in horrible enclosures at a "bonsai" farm on one of our stops. Really just the size of a bird cage. Pretty sad.

We fly to Bangkok tomorrow then potential trauma with the dress fitting - when I called to tell them I would be there a day early for my fitting (10 days after I initially saw them ) they hadn't started the dress yet. Stand by for some major stress if it doesn't work out.

That's all for now. Write soon, stay warm
Caroline (and Ken)
