We have a working camera!

We went to Big C yesterday (which Mike will post about later... its a whole story in itself) but we found a camera memory card and were able to take a lot of great photos today! I will start us off with some photos of our apartment :)

The computer room (between the spare and main bedroom)

Dining table, right next to the door and in the same general area as a the living room

Spare bedroom

Our main bathroom

Main bedroom

The back part of the kitchen and the door to the small balcony. Its very nice, but there is no oven

Mike making a lime sauce for our cucumber, avacado, shrimp salad

The view from the small kitchen balcony. Our shopping center is in the high rise in the distance on the left side. Its about 30 min walk or 5 by taxi

Our living room! Note our lovely new orange plant and the lovely pillows (one has fantastic embroidery)

Bought this old man after we saw the Hanoi water puppet show

The view from our large balcony! There are only 2 other high rises in our area so we can see the whole city from here. You can also see the very large West Lake, and the main street that we live on (Lac long quan) which brings us towards the center of the city

I think it is so interesting the way that there are high rises and then... fields. I am not sure what they are growing yet. The shorter of the two buildings is where we work (about a 5 minute walk)

We will make sure to post more soon, but now you have an idea of what our apartment looks like and a view of the city!

All the best,
Sara
