Hi all,
This morning (my time) Doug called the Vietnam US Citizen and Immigrations Services office on our behalf to see what he could learn about our visa situation. The long and the short of it is that they are aware of our case and will be investigating it further next week. If the investigation answers all of their questions, then they will forward our file to the Embassy in Hanoi who will send us our pre-approval email. That could mean that we won't hear of an approval until the week of the 21st (and not on the 21st since that is MLK day). Right now I am hoping that I will get to come home on January 25th, but of course it could be earlier (although not very likely) or later than that. It was disappointing to hear, but now we have a more realistic date in our heads at least.
So on that note, I am thinking about taking a weekend trip to visit an old city halfway down the coast. It is a place called Hoi An and it is supposed to be a beautiful city near the sea that wasn't destroyed in all the wars. We will see if all the details work out. I or Doug will keep you updated.
Thanks for checking in,
Barbie

I'm alittle behind, just now reading the snake adventure! You know I remember how many worms use to come out in Mn after a rain and how gross I thought that was! I don't think I would have got off the mini bus!! Kudos to you Barbie!

Barbie, you have the best attitude toward your "quasi-imprisonment". Some day Julia will hear what all you went through to get her and will be really impressed! I am.

Hi! Just wanted to say that I appreciate you posting. I'm addicted to the blog.
I wouldn't have drank the blood either. I might have tasted the meat, but if it were a choice between snake and beef, then beef would definitely win.
Love you,
Angie
