Day 6 Well we made it to Daniel and Minh Thanh's house on Friday after driving 2553 miles in the rental truck. We were tired after the long trip. Everything in the truck seemed to have survived. It was great fun to see everyone again. Thanh Tu started playing the piano about a year ago and gave us a concert after a great Vietnamese dinner. He is playing very well and we were impressed. Went to bed and slept very well.
Day 7 Saturday we and the family went and got our pictures taken. Fun except for the huge crowd and the studio area being very hot. For dinner Minh Thanh made another delicious dinner of a clam dip with shrimp cakes and another dish with noodles, veggies and chicken. Yummy. After dinner, Thanh Tu gaves us another nice piano concert and then he and sister Thanh Nha did some dancing. We went to bed early in anticipation of our getting up early for the 7:25 am flight.
Day 8 Got to the air port and flew to Chicago and then home to Seattle. Very uneventful. Anna and Emily came and picked us up at the airport. Good flight. We saw lots of new snow over the area we drove though just a few days earlier and we thankful we left when we did. Great trip and fun to see the family. We managed to leave without having to move the heavy stuff out the the truck (piano, refrigerator, etc.).
