Au Revoir Hue!


So long, Hue, it was good to know ya! Most of the student have now left. They left in batches beginning with four or five who took off early on Saturday and continuing in stages through Monday. The only one remaining is Andrew who will leave from Danang after Hong Anh and I leave Hue at 2pm. To all of you who followed this blog, to the parents who supported the students going on this trip, to Mely, Richard and the staff at UCR Summer Sessions, and especially to my lovely wife Hong Anh and our trooper daughter Scuppy, a big thank you and Tam Biet!

Farewell Party

We said our final farewells to each other and the teachers and staff at Hue University this evening. Scuppy here poses with Amy and Daisy in their ao dai's. Most of the women in the group showed up in ao dai's, making for an evening with lots of color.








It was so colorful, everybody was taking pictures of everybody.
