Hello everyone,
Thank you for your comments. I arrived with little drama, but man, what a long flight. Will fill you in with more info soon, but wanted to let you know I am safe and happy, a little nervous and excited all in one.
Having a hard time connecting to FB, they will shut it down occasionally.
I am in the Go Vap area, close to the airport, it sounds like the planes are going to land on the roof when they fly over. I'm glad I brought ear plugs, freaked me out when the first one went over, haha.
Lunch is being prepared, smells delicious.
Sin chao,
Kathy

Time is flying by
Welcome to my blog,
I am still putting it together, creating is half the fun of it. Technology is amazing, isn't it? Mark and I were just having a conversation this morning about it. If someone would have told me 10 years ago that I would be texting, surfing and posting on FB, let alone having a BLOG, I don't know what I would have said! Maybe signed up for college courses to understand it all. Technology has allowed me to research so much information on traveling to Vietnam. I was able to meet Anna and Mr. Felick whom without their help, I wouldn't be as excited to go as I am. Skype is comforting. Cell phones are convenient. Blogs are fun. Email is essential. FB, well, come on, we all know it's addicting.
I am leaving Wed., Feb 23rd. I have a 27 hour flight, yes, you read that right, 27 hours. I will be returning on May 18th. My purpose is to volunteer and teach spoken English. I am looking forward to meeting the children, the elderly, the family whom I staying with, which btw, don't speak English. Anna and I have never met, but I already hold her in my heart as a dear friend.
I wonder if I can do a video blog here also? If not, I will post on Youtube and send you the link. I say I will, but being in a communist country, I wonder what my limitations will be. Should be very interesting.
Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to read my blog.
Let me know what you think,
Kathy
