Travel Well I am finally in Saigon after 2.5 days of traveling due to delays, missed flights and 2 hotel overnights. Charlotte had a few inches of snow and chicago was about 15 degrees. After staying overnight in Chicago, I flew to Narita Tokyo and missed my connection to Saigon, so I stayed in a hotel there as well, which was pretty interesting. Japan is very efficient, eco-friendly and cubical like. For breakfast I was offered a choice between a orange and a tomato. Then, after failing to figure out how to turn on the shower head, I found a button on the toilet (which had many buttons) labled shower, so I pressed it and was quickly sprayed with water- from the toilet. Pretty crazy all in all, but after that I finally was able to make it to Saigon and I'll post more about my first day or so a little later, b/c I'm about to go shopping at the market.
P.S. I've started to feel a bit sick/ naseus in the past while so hopefully it's from nerves and not some horrible thing. (Though I have already once forgotten and brushed my teeth with faucet water just a few hours ago- ugh : / )
