Hi Everyone,
Sandy and I have arrived safe and sound. We are both glad to be done with flying for a couple weeks. I was feeling a little tired and not quite myself. My hotel room is 117 and I was thinking it would be on the first floor--turns out it was on the 11th floor. So just finding my room was my first Vietnam Adventure!
We will settle in for a good rest. It is 2:00 AM here, and then be up bright and early to enjoy all the sights of Ho Chi Min City. If anyone is curious about what the hotel is like, they have a web site at www.lanlanhotel.com.vn
I almost forgot, we did have a little adventure on our longest flight from Newark to Hong Kong. They made an announcement over the loudspeaker asking for a doctor. I didn't see anyone responding, so I asked if I could help. One of the flight attendants was having an allergic reaction to something and her face was swelling up. I couldn't do too much other than offer her some allergy medication that I had and stay with her awhile to make sure she didn't run into trouble breathing. A doctor did come up front after a bit, but he only spoke Mandarin so he wandered back off when he saw she had someone to look after her.
The flight attendants were all so nice and grateful that I came forward that they gave me a big bottle of champagne from first class. Unfortunately it was confiscated on the next leg of our journey. Oh well--easy come, easy go! Good night all, Lee
