Party Like A Rock Star

Tonight I'm back in Rach Gia and heading for an island oasis. Tomorrow morning the helicopter will take us out to our much deserved and long awaited vacation. I've been singing the Pina Colada song so much that my workers can recite some of the lines. It's hilarious. They are also now singing "Macho Macho Man...". I'm so glad to have shared the important parts of the American culture with them. :)

Rain finally came and cooled everything down amazingly. Unfortunately it also raised the water level so high that our latrine is no longer a sanitary place to be... yup, you can't have your cake and go potty in a clean place too.

I took a couple of photos today at work so I'll be sure to post them tomorrow when I can download them to the internet that I'm hoping to have in my room.

Oh and just to piggie back off of the last post - we managed to find 2 kilos of spaghetti noodles about an hour away by boat. It's the only four bags of spaghetti in southern Vietnam... and the darn things cost us almost 10 dollars a bag! Holy crap - the next time I come here I'm not going to pack anything but bags of 1 dollar spaghetti so I can mark it up and sell it on the pasta black market. Somehow I'm sure that socialism is to blame for this! hehehehehe
