Yeah, I've got a lot of junk in my trunk

What?? It's snowing and freezing damn cold where ever you are? That's too bad. I'm sitting on my balcony at my hotel in Waikiki. Yeah it's really freaking rough being me. :)

So far this trip is turning out to be very different than I expected. I'm going out with the advance party to clear the site of explosives and then build a little "house" out of bamboo to live in. There's only four of us going in on this team. Eventually there will be about 15 Americans out there working. Oh and it turns out that we're going to fly from here to Pattaya Beach. Ahh sweet Thailand. From there we're going to DaNang and then we'll head south. Our sites are in the very southern tip of Vietnam, down in the delta area.

How does a girl prepare to go spend 55 days in the remote delta of "nam"?? Mmmm, lots and lots of tuna and tortillas. Oh and a lot of velveeta. :)
