Slept in until 9:30 today. Quynh's aunt came home with more Banh Mi (at our request) for breakfast, then
we headed to Da Nang.
I like Da Nang a lot. It's a pretty big city, but it's no Saigon.... it's just comfortable and clean. Took some pictures of cars in town for Mookie, the went and picked out some dresses for the twins. Quynh wasn't crazy about them, but I think they're pretty. We stopped to eat at a fancy restaurant that serves rice in a clay pot that they smash.... it was very good.
I tried to shut my eyes for a while when we got back... had to go to Quynh's relative's house warming party. Boy do they know how to warm a house. There were 7 or 8 packed tables on the main floor, and there was a catered 5 course meal. It was awesome.
Quynh's uncle busted out the guitar whenever he got sick of the menu and came to serenade me. I was really impressed with his knowledge of old rock music and christmas songs. I was most impressed by his rendition of Mel Gibson's favorite Beatles song, "Hey Jew"........ let it out and let it in
Went to watch Trang and Tom rehearse their Christmas show. It was awesome.... there must've been 350 people or more just to watch the practice. Hopefully going to their show tomorrow will help me miss the Holidays less.
Stopped by to see the twins on the way home and gave them their dresses (which Trang made boxes for from scratch)... They loved them.
Now It's midnight, so I'm going to bed.
