Typcial Saigon Traffic...a view from a 'cyclo' A rather terrifying experience at first until you realize most of the locals know how to manuever around these older forms of transportation.

Gay Lynn taking advantage of some of the local affordable transportation. This is a "cyclo", a sort of 3 wheeled pedal bike with a front seat. Not recommended for the faint of heart. What a away to see the town as no other way can provide! ~Robert

2nd day

We went to school for the blind today, which is an orphanage for blind children. It is run by two nuns. The kids make things to sell to support the orphanage. The kids go to shool for 3 hours a day, they have to memorize what is being read to them out of a text book and then go back to the orphanage and write it in brail. A Deacon comes and teaches them how to play the mandolin or the keyboard. They were gracious enough to play for us. They were wonderful! We were able to tape some of their music to share with you. Enjoy and God bless you all. Elizabeth
