To all those interested in following the adventures of David, Hong Anh, Xuan Anh as well as the seven students in this year's program (from left: Jonathan, Tri, Tony, Albert, Vicky, Lidia, and Chau) we have arrived and are finally getting up online. At Co Hong Anh's prompting, everyone this year has bought a bicycle for fun cruising around town. (All have helmets, too.) Bikes here are cheaper to buy ($40) and resell ($20) than to rent daily from the hotel. Tri and Jonathan will be working at Bac Si Que's medical clinic for poor people, and Lidia will be working at the Duc Son Orphanage, so there may be an option for donating the bicycles for needy children instead. Hue is perhaps the most bikeable city, especially in the Old City (Thanh Noi) where we stay. Last night under the near-full moon, the group biked the main streets along the Perfume River, nearly empty after 10pm.
