One of our volunteers currently in Vietnam was eager to share a slice of his service program experience:
Today we had a special breakfast. Don had asked about the meal, the name
of
which I can't recall. Mr. Cuoung, the hotel manager made
special
preparations to provide us with the meal. I loved it. The
Vietnamese food
seems to agree with me. As a diabetic, I test my blood sugar
every day, and
the results are very good. I can report my blood glucose
levels have been
quite normal the last several days. Brett is
happy.
The classes today is were especially fun. Tracy Carsten and Brett
Davidson
have been using tongue twisters as fun ways to practice
pronunciation. The
students turned the tables on us and challenged us with a
Vietnamese tongue
twister.
This was the first day the team had to get
back to the hotel without Miss
Pam. We had no problem.
In the evening
we attended the water puppet show, a traditional art form in
Vietnam. It was
a short 45 minute show, but quite delightful.
We had dinner at the 6 on
Sixteen restaurant and had food from the Sapa
region of
Vietnam.
Thought of the day: "It's fun to have fun but you have to know
how." Dr.
Seuss
