And we wait some more

Monday is Tet which means everyone in Vietnam will be celebrating the New Year with their families and friends for a couple of weeks. John and I had a pre Tet dinner last night at a wonderful Vietnamese restaurant. The food was delicious. The chef was born in Vietnam and studied in France so there is a French influence to the traditional Vietnamese food on the menu.

We have reached week 10 waiting for PC approval. Since there will be celebrations for the next couple of weeks in VN, we will not hear anything from Hanoi until after 2/9 when everyone goes back to work.

I guess I have a bit more time to finalize the list of clothes I will be packing.

Good news today for Hanoi families!

Today I found out that three families have received travel approval to leave for Hanoi to meet their children! Congratulations to all of you! February is right around the corner.

On another note, we finally finished Linh's room. There may be a few other decorations that I add, but for the most part, its ready.
