Hi Dana and Josie:

Wow! It looks like the two of you are going to have a memory making trip. What is the time difference? Did you have to get any special shots for the trip? Are there any dangers or diseases you will need to be aware of? Do either of you speak Vietnamese? Thank you for putting the information regarding your trip in my mailbox at school. I bet you are super excited to get going. I have may calendar marked and will be following your trip. I hope you have a wonderful trip! Hugs~Vesta
