Back on the Road: Global Musings of a Chicana and her Travels

This started as a way to keep in touch with close friends and family while on my first trip off the continental U.S. to Viet Nam in 2009. It became a journal of personal experiences for myself and a sharing of one perspective on Viet Nam, its spectacular country, and beautiful people, for others. Now I have the opportunity to return this summer and to visit another country across the pond- the Philippines, I will continue my postings and bore you once again ;o)

I'll post soon

We were out of internet range the past few days then I got sick yesterday as we took a trip deeper and higher into the mountains to visit caves and water falls near the Viet/Chinh border. I came back with a fever and earache that drove me insane all night. I spent most of the day sleeping today since I couldn't sleep at night because of the pain. I don't want to take any medications. I'm feeling better this evening although I have a light headache and my ears are still clogged. 

Carly and Karyna should be landing in Ha Noi within the next hour or so and will be heading up here tomorrow- it's a looong drive. I hope they had a safe flight and I hope they have a safe drive up here. It will be nice to see some familiar faces :o) Ok I need to close my eyes. I hope I am well enough to go to work tomorrow. I feel bad that I wasn't there today :o( Hope all is well in America! Hugs fami!

PS- karaoke seems to be a popular thing to do in all of Viet Nam. Although I think it could be great fun and am up to making a fool of myself at any given time, tonight the wailing coming through my window is making me feel worse :o( it's mostly the men I hear sing...and they can't! I need to get out there soon and encourage women to take the mic. goodnight.
