OK back to the blog!
More and more of the homies are starting their own blog... I love it! I like reading... actually I prefer looking at pictures.... HAHA... of what everyone is up to. I need to link everyone's blog on my page... I'll do it after this post.
Its actually almost 4AM over here on the eastern coast of Asia but I just woke up b/c its been rather humid and these baby mosquitoes are buzzin' in my ear! Usually I don't have to worry about mosquitoes at my dad's house but I left the sliding doors open all day and they welcomed themselves in. FUCKERS!
For the past couple of days Mr. Bentley has been transporting these huge palm trees to plant outside the factory. It's amazing what 15 people can carry... Those trees must weigh a ton!
I finally go a chance to drop by the new office building. Its just a temporary home until our new office building is built. I ate lunch and chatted w/ everyone for a good hour. Everyone was laughing when I busted out my phone b/c they expected me to have this like really cool expensive phone but instead I have a dinky used Samsung flip phone... Nothing special but it gets the job done!
The office is to the left... Upstairs is the accounting department and downstairs are the sales reps. The warehouse is in the back.
Here's my uncle Hong who's head of the accounting department.
Later that evening I treated my mom's best friend's family out to dinner at Al Fresco's. They have two sons: Tuan (17) and Nam (13). They've never had a hamburger before so I wanted to introduce them to some American style food. They loved it!
Here they are riding on their Honda in the streets of Vietnam.
Nam's burger is bigger than his head...
Afterwards I had tickets to watch Vietnam's famous Water Puppet Show. It was a sold out show full of tourist from around the world. The show featured a live Vietnamese folk band, opera style singers, and puppetries who performed in the water.
MAA... I'm a Vietnamese puppet!
Puppet Masters...
Afterwards I cruised around Hanoi and stopped by the Tomb of Ho Chi Minh. I wanna go inside during the day but I haven't had a chance yet.
Here are few random pics from the past couple of days... My niece, who's half Vietnamese and half White, just arrived the other day w/ her grandparents. She so cute! She looks like Boo from Monsters Inc.
Also tried some KFC too!
Here's me and one of my dad's close friends from Vancouver, Canada eating at the 5 star Sheraton Hotel Buffet. It was just as expensive as the Rio Buffet in Las Vegas... $25 but the selection of food was not even 1/6 of the Rio's. $25 is about a weeks worth of pay for a middle class worker. For those of you that know about what goes on in Vancouver aka British Columbia... He's the head of the whole Vietnamese operation. TJ and Ron this is someone you need to know... He'll hook it up!
Outside the Vietnam Military Museum... Thats a huge helicopter!
$500,000,000 VND = $31,250 USD... CASH MONEY!
GOOD NIGHT!
