It's Sunday, May 27th and it's the day before we leave for Vietnam. I'm feeling somewhat anxious packing and anticipating what I may see and feel when I go "home". As some of you know, I was born in Saigon but have not been back since 1975 as my family left as refugees during the Fall of Saigon. Several people have asked about how I feel about seeing my homeland. And to tell you the truth, I have no idea. I may be overwhelmed with emotion but who's to say... all I know is that I am looking forward to learning more about my past, my heritage and a little more about myself. And of course, who wouldn't be excited to see 100 ducks heading to market, strapped to a back of a motorcycle or even a small family riding on one bike!
Nonetheless, I will try and be diligent and keep you all updated on our adventures!
