Link Tucson to Hanoi Sharon using Rap Music to fight Parkinson. Last sunday we had party at Sharon's house to thank my friends who supported me during the time I was in the hospital. Sharon and myself testing the foods John loaned the telescope to Chota who studied astrology at the University of Arizona. John Rhodes in charge of the wine. Always ready to help... Angela now in New Zealand and has been for the past 6 months. She is teachign english at a korean school. Sharon Kha is fighter. Parkinson does not take away her spirit. Sharon doing a Parkinson's rap at Access Tucson... Love Hoi An Trails. It has a huge pool and the food and service are great. An extensive and delicious breakfast buffet was included in my $60 USD/night Tamarind" room was large, clean and well appointed with a pool view. Ly and Lan are most helpful at reception, and Linh is the dining room is a sweetheart. I like that the hotel is situated in a quiet spot on the beach road, Cua Dai, 1 km from the lovely beach, that you can push bike to, and 3 km from the quaint town. Across the street is Lan's mini grocery where you can rent a push bike for 10,000 d if the hotel runs out, and Lan can also take you to town via moto for 20,000 d. My best meals in Vietnam were in Hoi An: Mango Rooms features pan Asian cuisine with a spicy latin twist. The street food was fantastic: cau lau, a local noodle salad dish, with the best version available in the market; Hoi An pancake and crispy Banh My sandwiches with their contrasting flavors.

And I was exaggerating in my post; my Vietnamese isn’t that bad. I’ve forgotten a lot, but it comes back pretty fast when I visit. I do want to become fluent though, so if/when I move back, that’s definitely on the agenda. I turn this patio into a computer lab in order to fix computer for my old neighbors and to teach computer to young people... John came to visited me and showed off his grandkid... I gave him a wooden car (I made). Park my car next to his workshop Front door of his workshop Door to his workshop Fixing the chopping block Jack working |
