Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Tuesday, November 1, 2011
We have made our way back from Phu Quoc. It is so easy and cheap to take side trips here. The flight back was a little less than an hour and the airports are so small you don't have to get there early. The planes are new and comfortable. We are back in our schedule with meetings and school. Our teacher is so good. She has an answer for all our questions. When we get home you guys in our viet. congregation can tell us if she was right. It is going to be really hard to spend money when we come home. For example, on Phu Quoc we went to a waterfall. We had to pay for our entrance and parking for our motorcycle. After we walked a while we saw what we thought might be the waterfall and it was not very impressive. Jerry said. "I hope this is not what we just paid 40 cents to see". The funny part is that he was serious. We kept walking and found the falls. It was worth all 40 cents. We are getting excited about heading home so we can bore everyone with all we have learned and with our pics. See y'all in about a week.

can't wait to see all the pictures. You're going to be exhausted when you get back... I'm tired just reading your blog!
Yeah, is starts getting ridiculous when .40 sounds like a lot. We remember when we had to pay tourists prices for pho in one place, 1.00 instead of the .40 to .60 cents in our local hangouts. We haven't been the same since. Wish we could be in Portland when you return. We need a skype after 5:00 date.
