A couple more misc. updates...










Singaporean Cuisine
(Egg roll, something else that was delicious, dumpling, and chicken claw)


I am still processing our trip today and some more things came to mind that I thought I would share in bullet points:

  • Riding in a taxi for almost 2 hours to get to the Cu Chi Tunnels. Our driver got lost.
  • Riding in a taxi for almost 2 hours to get back to the hotel - lost again.
  • Driving through the local countryside and thinking about what it must have been like for our veterans 40 years ago.
  • Driving through the local countryside and wondering if I would ever see home again!
  • Being propositioned numerous times by ladies - it is really sad. Actually, a man tries to corral you on the sidewalk while the ladies pop out. The street is the best option.
  • Wanting to eat ice cream.
  • Finally getting ice cream.
  • Staying up too late and getting up real early
  • New friends Jim and Debbie, Al and Linda, Hans, Scott, Kim
  • Meeting someone in the country who used to pastor in Valley View (Cleveland) Community Church. We were only about 2 miles apart, if that.
  • Did I mention the floods on Tuesday night? Water was everywhere - I hope me being Cedar Rapidian didn't do it. : (
  • Shopping - lots of cool stuff to buy.
  • Eat, eat, eat. we ate a lot here.
  • Our friends brought in Oreos - a knockoff brand. But they were good!
Good night.
