Katie enjoying her treat from a shopkeeper...and Eli
hamming it up for the camera

"Here guys; you want my binky?"
He still won't take any binkies except this pink one |
| |
|
"I love Megan! Or at least my mom tells me I will." |
Talking on the phone to Gaga and Papa |

The first solid food we have been able to get him to eat |
"This strawberry yogurt is much better than rice cereal" |

A cute little shop where we found some great items |
St. Joseph's Cathedral |
| |
|
Ly Quoc Buddhist Pagoda |
Some more beautiful buildings |
| |
|
Hmm... we're guessing most American's don't shop here |
We found this high end skate shop in Hanoi ( link) |
|
|
Glass bits cemented on the wall form primitive barb wire
(this is the "Hanoi Hilton" where U.S. POWs were held) |
This dog is caged outside a nearby restaurant
Lunch, anyone?
|
The Guoman Hotel; our home in Hanoi ( link) |
A few doors up is the western-friendly Paloma Cafe |
|
|
The fruit in the bottom of the picture is Dragon Fruit |
Inside, it has a texture like a Kiwi, but is less tart tasting |
| |
|
We don't know the name of this, but they
served it at our G&R ceremony |
To eat it, you score it, then pull out the
little sectioned pieces; the biggest has the seed |
|
|
We also do not know the name of this fruit yet but it
is one of the most common fruits for locals
|
You peel off a hard outer layer and the fruit is like a
peeled grape but with a big, hard, shiny stone in it
|

|
I was trying to take a picture of Eli's formula...
|
but Katie wanted me to take a picture of her instead
