Visiting Room to Read school with Tim Ferriss and two other donors about 3 hours outside of Saigon / Ho Chi Min City. More about the school here. They teach ages 2-5. Also: birthday dinner for John.

Full Moon Festival in Hoi An, Vietnam. Also Tim and I got the cheapest haircut ever, about $0.80 a piece, and I got a shave for another dollar or so. (You don’t want to cheap a guy holding a razor to your neck.)

Touring the various temples and tombs of Tu Duc and Khai Dinh around Hue, Vietnam.

Driving to and on a cruise ship around Ha Long Bay, Vietnam.

Arriving in Hanoi, Vietnam and some brief sojourns around the city.
