We're still sitting around today waiting to hear from the facilitator about our INS appointment. I hope that no news is good news. Maybe he'll call in a little while and confirm a Wednesday appointment.
Last night we took our facilitator out to eat at the Rex Hotel. The food was very good and they had traditional Vietnamese music being played by a group there. It was very interesting to hear.
After we left the restaurant, there was a terrible commotion outside. It seems that the Vietnamese soccer team had advanced in the Asian Cup. There were hundreds of young people on mopeds racing around the circle below the Rex waving Vietnamese flags and banners. This excitement continued well into the night as the groups went all through the city. They passed our hotel very late yelling and chanting. The group was so large it pretty well shut down all traffic wherever it went. The picture was taken in the circle in front of the Ho Chi Minh City Hall. This is where the statue of Ho Chi Minh with a child is located.
So now we wait. Here are a few more pictures of Jett while we are waiting. Hopefully I'll have good news tomorrow!
Look Mom, No Hands!
