PR and Departing

After going to bed really early last night, we got up around 8:30am and started packing and such. Because there was only 1 elevator in the hotel, it had been recommended that we get our suitcases down to the lobby by 10. Well there were 5 of us in the room and we all had […]

Puerto Rico

So I’m sitting at the airport now and it’s 6:11am. If this had been all me, I’d be waking up now and leaving at 6:30 for our 8:05 flight. Instead, alarms went off at 4am at the Mazzilli house and people were running around like the first scenes in Home Alone. Seriously, it was JUST […]

My first sunrise

After passing out last night, I was shocked to find the alarm going off at 7am and Dave rushing out to the living room and then waking me up shortly thereafter. He had set the alarm so that I could see my first sunrise – over the ocean! Really, it’s little actions like that that […]

Last Day in Saigon

Today we finally had the chance to sleep late so we didn’t get up until 10:15am, despite cats having a brawl outside of the window around 7:30.  Saigon has some really odd city sounds.  I packed my luggage but still had to get another suitcase to carry all of my purchases that were still in […]

Angkor Wat and Return to Saigon

We woke up today at around 8:30am, which was sleeping pretty late considering we had been getting up at of before 7am most days.  I showered in the glass shower (think carnival money machine) and got ready.  It’s worthwhile to note that I did attempt to do something with my hair each morning, and this […]
