We loved the pictures especially the eyeballs. What are they used for?

Hey! Wow...spending a long time in Vietnam! Geez...about time you cross over to Thailand now...just kidding! Your stories are still great and very informative, great job on the descriptors! And thanks a lot for the card...was really nice to see that in the mail! Hope you have a great time at your next destination!

Ok brother, you've gone too long now with no contact. Come back to civilization and send the nice little hello, everything is fine. I would like to hear your voice some time.

Not too much is new here. More snow. I'm going to give a presentation to my students about my trip to Costa Rica and have a friendly competition with the other FACS teacher to see whose students can donate the most items for me to take on my trip. I'm pretty excited about it all! The leader of the trip contacted me to get an idea about which activities I'm interested in. Definitely repelling down a waterfall and zipling....possibly white water rafting and any type of bike ride. Ok, I need to sleep. Miss you!!

Hey! Thank you for the postcard - I like the picture with all of the hats

It is grey & rainy in Boston - I hope the weather is nicer where you are!

Hi brother. You should come home. I'm sick of having sarcastic conversations with myself as mother sits in her Queen B lazy boy reading the newspaper. Normally, we would go back and forth about the every day stupidity and crack up. It's not as fun.

Anyway, my girls took 1st and 2nd at competition. I have another one (4th one in a row) this Saturday. Then I'm going to have a huge party called no dance team events so I can have a life like a normal 22 year old. I hope your travels are swell. :)

Hey dude! glad to see you're having a great time. brings back so many memories when i see you pictures.

Did you have fun on your motor bike ride? All the students say hi. Take pictures of the animals you see. What's your favorite food there? Where are you going next?

It sounds like you are having a great trip so far. The photos are wonderful. I wish I was sitting on the beach today. Weather today in Chicago is snow with winds up to 50 MPH. They say the wind chill will be 47 below. Have fun and take care.

I would never get used to rats! Have a great time on your motorbike tour. Be careful!

I'm glad you're having such a wonderful time in Vietnam. It's funny that you are eating local food as well as pizza and banana pancakes :)

I miss you on s/t of course!

Justin!! Hey there brother. I hope you are doing well and feeling better. I keep going on Skype but I guess I haven't caught you on there yet. I would go on before work but I'm usually running late. Perhaps I'll try to wake up early tomorrow.

My girls had competition this weekend and took 1st in hip hop and 3rd in pom. They qualified for Elite 8 (JV version of state) so it looks like I'll be spending my birthday with the girls in Peoria.

I've been looking into more of the voluntourism organizations and there is a trip to Laos I am very interested in this summer. Ok this is long. I'll write more in an e-mail later. By the way, it's going to be warm here this week: 40 degrees!!! Hoody weather!

Hi Justin! Ok, I was a little surprised to see pictures of girls so soon. We enjoyed the pictures; it makes us miss being in Asia. We've been asked to teach in Hong Kong this summer, which we are going to do. I don't think Vietnam is for us...looking forward to seeing your pictures of Thailand.
