A colorful day!

The event was "Wacky outfit day" I believe, and we saw a few.


Amy's flute debut.

As we all know, Amy's not just a pretty face. Witty, intelligent, and humorous, she also plays the flute. Amy joined The Taylor's orchestra and played the flute for a performance called All That Music. Four nights on a musical journey. After a nine plus year hiatus, her performance was very impressive.

Vietnam

These shots from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Cat Ba speak for themselves.
The job interview for this company is quick and simple,
one question.

Imagine our Canadian infrastructure electrical safety techniciens, touring this area. Ouch! 
 That ladder is made of bamboo poles.
                                       
Those little rolled up packages were an awesome snack. Sticky rice I think it was called. And this lady was so nice.
 That's talent. After taking this shot, I yelled 'HUGE SNAKE', he looked down and all the beggars ate for free.
 Our hotel view.
Below are remanents of the American war at the Cu Chi tunnels located approximately 70km northwest of Ho Chi Minh City centre in Cu Chi Rural District.  The Americans ate their karma in those tunnels for waging illicit war against women, children, senior citizens, food supplies, agriculture and the very fabric of the Vietnamese culture.
                               
 Traffic...and this was light.

I'm a Millionaire...TWICE

I was a millionaire twice in Vietnam. It was awesome. No kidding, look at the picture. Five hundred thousand...times 2. Read em and weep baby. Every time I went to the ATM, I brought an empty bag to carry the load.
One Canadian dollar is equal to 19,000.00 dong. Dahhhhhhhh!
