Vietnam

February 17th, 2014 · 1 Comment

Gisele and I are leaving for a trip to Vietnam on Thursday. Her brother has organized the trip and we will be joined by several others in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City).

We arrive in HCM City, then travel northward viewing sites on the way, including the Hue region where Richard was stationed during the war. We eventually reach Hanoi in the north, and then fly back to Saigon. If we have time and can arrange it, we would like to take a short expedition to Cambodia to visit the famous Angkor Wat temple complex, which rivals the Taj Mahal in grandeur.

Gisele has been back to Vietnam a couple of times since she left there in 1979, but this will be my first visit.

We are stopping in Taiwan for a few days on our way home to see Devon.

    Should be very educational. What’s the weather in Vietnam this time of year?
