Memorial Day Weekend in Dalian
Scrolling through FaceBook this weekend, I got a little sad looking at pictures of barbecues, beach trips, clam bakes, hiking and other adventures friends embarked on during Memorial Day weekend. It's always such a great holiday, marking the beginning of summer and the abundance of outdoor activities, when the sun lingers for longer and everyone just seems happier.

Our Excursion in Vietnam
It's been way too long since I blogged and, well, for good reason. I was on vacation!
For 12 days, my parents, Scott and I toured Vietnam. We started in Hanoi, where we stayed at a quaint hotel in the old Quarter on a small street near Hanoi's Hoan Kiem lake. The streets of Hanoi are always buzzing and somehow it all works. The old ladies balancing baskets full of fresh fruit on their shoulders don't get run over by the thousands of mopeds, which artfully dodge pedestrians crossing the street. Everyone likes to pop a squat on the sidewalk, sitting in little pre-school chairs to enjoy a fresh bowl of Pho or play cards.
