Vietnam

Vietnam!
Sorry for my delay in posting I have been so busy this past month. Just to catch you up on these last few months. Just finished school and had vacation/training in Vietnam. These next few months I will be working around MCC teaching English a little and writing a sewing curriculm. Then my parents will be coming at the end of June! We will be going to Luang Prabang and I will be showing them around Vientiane. So exited to finally see them it's been almost 300 days!

Now to tell you about Vietnam:
We drove in a tiny little van cramped with 18 people for three whole days. It was a long trip but worth it!

We stayed with a super nice family and their house was nestled around mountains. Our first day we got to Nha Thrang at about two and then we sent to the beach and played. We got a giant mango that was about the size of my head.

On Monday we went island hopping. At the first island we snorkeled. It was amazing. I have always felt that snorkeling is something I wouldn't want to do but it was so much more fun than I thought it would be. You keep wanted to go back for more.

The next island we went swimming.

The last island was an aquarium but we just had snacks at the restaurant there.

On Tuesday we had a training, about sharing the gospel and they talked about their program and what they were doing in Vietnam. After that we went shopping, they had a super nice mall and we had KFC!

On Wednesday we went shopping again at the street markets. After that we went to Vinpearl Amusement park. It was top notch. So nice and it felt like I was back in America. They have cable cars that take you to the Island of Vinpearl and they have rides and a water park and a light show we got to see.

On Thursday we went back to the snorkeling island and spent some of the day there. I found some sharp coral and cut my foot but otherwise was unscathed. We then went to a crab farm and swam around. We then returned home and had a giant dinner. Crab, squid, shrimp and clams we had it all. We we're still full the next day.  On Friday we headed out on our long journey home. We made it home by late Saturday night.

Such a nice get away and time to relax from the hectic end of the school year.
Soon to be home and relaxing as well. Only 37 days left in Laos!
Will be leaving on the 17th of July and have 5 days of  re-orientation in Akron and then will be home!
Missing home and hope everyone is doing well.
Prayers for travel and easy transitions would be appreciated!
