Visit to Social Support Wednesday

We had a great trip to social support with Tony on Wednesday and got to see Tinh, Jen's favorite kid from her years at GVN.  It was great to see the social support house.  We stoped at the market n the way to pick up 100 bananas to give to the residents at social support.  Young, old, handicapped.  It seemed to be in good shape and we were pleasantly surprised to find air conditioning in the physical therapy room!  The kids were great and Tinh definitely recognized Jen when she walked in...such a great smile and laugh that should be bottled!  There was a precious little boy who layer on the mat and was covered in a blanket because the AC was a bit chilly for him!  I rubbed his back and he smiled continuously.  He kept having partial seizures, but it didnt phase him, he just kept smiling and wanting his back rubbed.

We took a fun motorbike ride along the river on the way back and stopped at Red Beach on the bay for lunch.  Beautiful location and strangely vacant in the lower end of tourist season!  After lunch we rode over the new bridge in Da Nang that is a great example of a communist work project.  Huge span bridge and not able to transport large trucks...oops!  Oh Vietnam, you are so ridiculous.m just like the giant expanses of undeveloped land with perfect streets, gutters, side walks, and street lights. No houses.  No building plans.  Just a way to keep people busy...nice!

We had some lovely seafood for dinner again...as usual in Vietnam!  Love spending time with my amazing girlfriend and all of our Vietnamese friends and family!
