These are some of my new friends rocking their new Pitt and Phillies gear.
We got the afternoon off, which most of us used to swim, catch up on our blogs, and start packing. Then at 6 we gathered in the lobby for a little photo shoot. Everyone who bought a new suit got to wear that while the girls wore their new Ao dai, a traditional Vietnamese dress. You're welcome for the upcoming eye candy.
This is my good friend, Bo, who I became very close to
My friend wanted to wear a bow tie and I was more than happy to oblige
I don't like looking at cameras apparently
Matching with my boy Dan
Bryan Shultz looking classy as ever
We think that we're cool
Our farewell dinner took place on a boat on the Saigon River. After the meal, the boat took us around on a tour of the harbor. It is really cool to look at the city skyline and think about how much it has changed in the past 40 years.
A bunch of us decided to have our Titanic moments
We left that morning at about 3 a.m. Before we left, the students took a short visit to a fountain near the hotel to soak up the last moments of our time here. Some of the UEF students came to airport to see us with some tearful goodbyes. I am going to miss this place and am already planning a return. These were two of the best weeks of my life. I will never forget the experiences and new friends that I made here. 18 hours on a plane later, here I am back at home. Hen gap lie, Vietnam. I'll see you again someday.
