Travel Day

After 34 long hours of traveling, we finally made it to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Even though I have been on a large number of flights, each takeoff is still thrilling to me. That 16 hour flight was awful, but at least now we are here. I can't wait to see what this trip has in store for me. Tomorrow we get to meet our Vietnamese student counterparts, who will be our guides for the rest of the trip. On the bus ride from the airport to the hotel, I got to catch my first glimpses of Ho Chi Minh City. It looks pretty interesting, and I'm looking forward to exploring it with my new Vietnamese friends.
