^^^^^We are in Vietnam^^^^^

We arrived in Ho Chi Minh City at 12:30 p.m. Vietnam time. It is muggy and hot here, cloudy and raining off and on. This is the start of the rainy season. The hotel is very nice, we ate here tonight, since we are a little tired. We had an uneventful flight on all accounts. We have gone looking at the TAX Market in HCMC just across the street from us. We plan on going on a tour tomorrow to see more sights. I have found Micaela an Ao Dai, traditional Vietnamese dress at that 4 story market. It is the most beautiful pink with embroidered flowers all over it. She will look fabulous for the giving and receiving ceremoney. We just met some others from another agency that received their daughter last week Wednesday and are leaving for Hanoi tomorrow. Their baby was so tiny and she was almost 7 months old. We are getting real excited to meet Micaela.

Karen,
I'm so glad you're updating your blog while you are there. I kept checking to see if you arrived (and were going to write). I've been thinking of you and Matt a lot and saying prayers for you! Can't wait to see you all when you get back!
