good morning, vietnam!!!!!

alright everyone, it’s been far too long since we last updated this thing but for very good reason.  you see, we were in china and the chinese government we learned employs 30,000 to 50,000 people to sit on the computer all day long and block websites from being seen.  for whatever reason, our travel blog was one of the millions of sites they deemed unsuitable.  lets all breathe a sigh of relief though because we’re now in beeaauuttiifulll hanoi, vietnam where the internet flows freely! 

anyway,  drew will be making a larger post in the next day or so full of pictures and adventures but for now you’ll have to wait.  i will say though that in china for valentine’s day drew and i climbed the great wall of china in the morning and in the afternoon went to a chinese military complex where we shot AK-47’s and UZI’s.  my valentine’s day present were the bullets i got to fire.  as drew likes to say, “nothing says love like automatic weapons!”  weapons reigned supreme in the north while bike riding and boat rides ruled the south when we stayed in a small town called Yangshuo.  the pictures won’t do this place justice, it was just too beautiful.  now that i’m in vietnam though i’ve come to realize that that beauty was just the beginning…

 i’m wearing shorts today and so stoked about that.  bring on the warm weather!!! 

love,

blair
