yes, yes, yes... it's awesome. it's intense. it's been described as many things. currently, where are we? vietnam!! pronounce it however you like (the correct queen's english or the john wayne way). reba and i had the chance to meet le ly hayslip (the woman who wrote 'heavan and earth' - later to become the third installment in oliver stone's let's open up old vietnam wounds trilogy). very cool. we had an informal get-together where we could ask her questions about her life, NGO, future, etc. it's so hard when i didn't prepare by reading the book. well, i kind of skimmed it. well, i'm still skimming it. if i get a free moment to sit down, i'll try to concentrate on it. we took a bunch of pictures w/ le ly. to be posted soon.
LIFE ON THE OCEAN. a couple of days ago we stopped off in taiwan. it was a first for me to enter 'china.' whether it is or not, it's to be debated. at least it was china... ish. people were asking me, 'wow, it's the home of your ancestors. are you PLANNING on breaking down and crying?' i thought about it. but it hasn't happened. all i did was eat things attached to a stick.

matt & reba,
i think kneeling down the kissing your ancestral birthplace would have been more appropriate. however, those rebels from the mother country do not deserve your homage...ha ha j/k! just make sure you stay away from the nasty beetlenut.
