Vietnam Weekend 3: Part 1

Hello fellow interweb friends!

I cannot believe I've already been here for 3 weeks! This means I will be leaving in about 10 days!!! Even though I am looking forward to go home to my friends and family in the states, I will definitely miss my family in Vietnam very much. The leaving part is always so hard just because we've gotten so close and spent so much time with each other. My cousins and I may have not seen each other in four years, but it felt like no time's passed and we still have so much fun with each other, even though they all have their own families and babies to take care of. This weekend was definitely one for the books! We spent an entire day hot-spring and mud bathing and then another day going into the mountains to go river rafting and then playing with a nature-made slip-and-slide. The past two days were filled with so many good memories, so much laughter, and ton of love.

Here are just a few pictures from Saturday at the I-Resort Hot Springs and Mud Bath! 

I apologize for my flabbiness!

Keep an eye out for the next blog,

More pictures to come soon!

Vietnam Motherland: Catch Up #2

Hello fellow interweb friends!

Sorry I've lagged the last couple of days! The internet has been down at home, and I didn't feel like lugging my laptop around to the various coffee shops around here to post, but it's all good in the hood now! We found a way to use the neighbor's wifi, which is much faster than the one at home, which means I cannot be lagging anymore! Hahaha, unfortunately, I will only be in Nha Trang for about another week, and in Vietnam for a little over 10 days! Wowzers, cannot believe a month is about to go by so fast! But here are some pictures! My family got the hooker-uppers to stay at the Louisiane Brewhouse and got to enjoy the bestest view in the world, hope you guys enjoy!

(NO CAPTION NEEDED!)

Us girls can hang!

She's my cousin-in-law, but it doesn't feel that way at all! I'm closer to her than her husband who's my actual cousin...hahaha

This little man is the cutest runner in the world!

This is during the day time!

Hahaha double fisting everywhere I go! Even my cousins think I'm quite the drinker!

You know what happens after I get a few drinks in me?!?!?

Here is the majority of the family!

So here are only a few pictures from that day! We went back there again for drinks the night of the 4th, which I will share with you at another time! This weekend is going to be super fun because we are going to go hot spring bathing/mud bathing again! I think I will post up some pictures from the first time we went in the next blog, so keep an eye out for that! Gosh guys, I am having way too much fun, so it's kind of bittersweet to think I will be going home soon!

That's all for now,

Gotta go eat!

Vietnam Motherland: Day 7

Hello fellow interweb friends!

I can't believe it's been a week since I've been gone! Time is surprisingly going by so fast, which is kind of bittersweet for me. Every time we go to Vietnam, it always happens like this. Just as my family start to get use to everything and begin to enjoy ourselves, it's just right around the time when we have to pack up and go home, so sad! 

The best part of the trip so far is all the beach trips and scenery. It is amazingly green and beautiful here. Here are some pictures, no filter, just natural sunlight to show you guys!

Such cute creatures!

My dad used to work on these railroad tracks, which makes this like a trip down memory lane for him.

This is part of a rice patty field. I can't get over how green it is.

These are banana trees! The bananas here may look green and raw, but it is so sweet!

The mountains here just blend in with the fields so nicely, which makes the mountains look much less scary.

This is like a little bamboo village. I wish we had these little things at home!

So gosh darn pretty and quaint and cute with these little shacks!

Hope you guys are enjoying these as much as I am,

I'll see you soon!
