We’ve been back for 3 weeks now and wedding season starting to get crazy busy! It’s been great to get back to our regular schedule with the little dudes. We’ve been trying to take advantage of our newly acquired Disney season passes and took them again last week. I’m new to all this Disney activity, so it’s kinda cool for me. I rode on Dumbo for the first time! I know…it’s a kiddie ride, but it was cool going with Lucas. He’s super into Disneyland now so it’s fun watching him go nuts.
Everyone is sick right now, so it’s been a bit tough for the boys. So clogged and unable to sleep peacefully. I remember when colds lasted a week, now they are going on 4 weeks!! Hopefully the dudes feel better really soon.
Nathan is now eating solid foods, so he wanted to show you what he eats:

Happy Friday!!!
Trying to catch up with the vacation posts…

Our first trip to Vietnam was great! Our entry point was Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon. It reminded me very much of Manila, big, dirty, noisy but except for one thing….thousands of scooters!! They pretty much ruled the city. The scooter/car ration seemed to be 50/1. It was pretty insane, but it did bring upon an unexpectedly fun city activity…crossing the streets. It was like Frogger on steroids!
We did the usual tourist stuff which were really cool. The Cu Chi Tunnels, the Mekong Delta, and a few local war museums. It was definitely interesting to see the “other” point of view. But the main highlight for me was the Food! Everything we ate was soooo yummy! But I already loved Vietnamese food, so I was already looking forward to it. The people in Saigon were really friendly so it made touring the city pretty easy. Some pics:
This guy probably has the hardest job in the world.

One of many, many scooters.

I had to give Tey a Dong slap…hahah. In this case, 5 milllion Dong!

The Mekong was cool…right out of Apocalypse Now (even though that was filmed in the Philippines!)

Never thought I would do THIS!
