Day 5

Time to Stop Ducking Around
By this point in time we have settled into a routine. Wake up, stumble around till you look presentable, run to the breakfast room to avoid the lack of air conditioner in the hallway and play a Vietnamese roulette to decide what you are having for breakfast.
That day we had an urban planning development seminar and learned that the people here are much better at driving than those in the states, maybe this means I should get a motorcycle (DAD). And then language lessons began again. This is probably the only time in my entire life that hello and good bye were the most difficult parts of the conversation.
Then we rode to our first company of the trip PHU MY HUNG. Even though I did my pre-departure project on them there was still a lot that I didn’t know about it. For example they are constructing a utopian society, no big deal. Also we saw the traveling duck that came to Pittsburgh, so that was fun.

Later that night we had dinner with some of the Vietnamese students, classic Pho-n.
