Saturday, July 21st

Today was our last full day in Ho Chi Minh City, so to celebrate we went to lunch at Pizza Hut. hahaha. I (Scott) was just hungry for normal, American-style food and Pizza Hut did the trick. We then went shopping and got some great things at a store called Vietnam Quilts. It's a co-op through which rural Vietnamese women can sell handmade items. They're offered training and a fair wage. So, we supported a good cause and got some really nice things.

We went to dinner this evening with most of the group. Along for the ride was an American couple who are living in Singapore. They are looking into adoption and just came to town to explore our agency's program. Not sure if we helped them or not, but they seemed nice.

It's now 8:30 PM and we're just about ready to call it a day. Logan has been, as usual, sleeping since about 7:00.

So long Saigon! We're leaving for the airport tomorrow at noon for our 2:00 flight to Hanoi. This will be all the children's first time on an airplane. Wish us luck!
