So sorry - just got back from Vietnam with Dan visiting Neil. I foolishly thought I could blog between phos, banh mis, and massages in Ho Chi Minh City. Apparently I could not.
I really enjoyed visiting Ho Chi Minh. Way better than Hanoi for some reason.
A better and more time sensitive blog post to follow next week (just in time for Halloween). Promise.
Uncle Dan!
