It's been 1 week

Today I woke to find I indeed got bug bites from the visit to the beach.

Vietnam 1, Tracy 0.

Then I quickly got up to get ready to play some tennis. 6am leaves me not on my best game, but I've managed to get used to the time--plus its the only sane time to play because it's pretty humid/hot here. (but people actually pick up balls for us here so any complaining would bring me to a Queenish status)

After tennis the usual continental buffet breakfast followed by my first ever spa treatment. Hellooo foot massage. While I had parts of my aching body hot rocked, I enjoyed complimentary green tea and dried sweetened ginger (mMmm) Again, I can get used to this whole complimentary trip thing.

Just finished packing since tomorrow we have a 6 day tour that starts bright and early. We will be flying to Hanoi which is no more than 2 hrs then we will visit about 5-8 different islands/towns/cities. My mom is stoked, she's never been (which I find odd, but pleased to be able to experience with her) This brings me to my blog situation. I won't be as accessible as I "have been," but I urge you to let your imagination take it's course on the journey I will embark upon.

Tomorrow will mark my 1 week since leaving good ol' USA, I can't believe it. My dad tried to coax me into going to Thailand and extend my stay. I will not but the option is an attractive one. And though I never agreed to home is where the heart is, I do believe [people] is where the heart is, and 99% of my people are not in Thailand.

So here's to you faithful readers who are probably the loveliest of people. I hope October has been good to you, it has to me. Save me some fall leaves and apple spiced cider & I'll bring back a warm hug.


All my love,
Tracy
