    UNDEROOS - Rocktober - Yeah baby!

    Back in Saigon, it’s our last night so I get a bit tarted up and Mr Rags doesn’t and we all go to the Lemongrass Restaurant for the farewell dinner. Tomorrow Mr Rags and I leave for Cambodia while others stay on and get to do the tunnel tour where viet cong lived in tunnels for years on end. Ahh, perhaps I’ll get back there one day.


    I opted for appetizers. Should’ve asked how big the servings were. I made myself eat it all. Another kilo. Don’t care.







    The Vietnamese food in Vietnam tastes different to the viet food we get here. Maybe they westernise it for us in Oz.

      Next morning we say a rainy farewell to Vietnam.

      A few hours later we are in Siem Reap.

          If I'd known where the bicycle rainy day outfitters were, I would've got one for Nicey.

If any Undies know anyone who can translate this, I?d like the address (I assume an address is on there somewhere) so I can write to them and see if they?ll send me some more. Better still if they would arrange to write a letter on my behalf in Vietnamese. If any one can help, pm me. Thanks.

            Could you stick it into Google Translate Rags?

              Appreciating the pics Rags! Marvellous.

              I used to teach/practice English with a Vietnamese fella at his home through a multicultural org here a few years ago. After our fairly informal conversational sessions, he would always get me to join the family for some home cooked tucker. He told me that the dishes presented were from his village, and that i would never taste anything like it here. He's right. The simplicity is what struck me, or so it seemed, but maaaate, the flavours!

              Yo!

                    Open up the Google home page.
                    There is a black field/strip thingo up the top there that says things like 'Gmail' and '+you'.
                    Go the the far right hand side of that black field and use the drop down arrow.
                    Select 'Translate'
                    Copy and paste what you want translated into the English field.
                    Select translate to Vietnamese.

                    A couple of things:
                    1. Might make it to the address more reliably if you just copy it verbatim and add 'Vietnam' to get it out of this country.
                    2. Dog knows how effective the translate will be if there are many different Vietnamese dialects
                    If your 8 year old self met you, would they be proud?

                      The candy is yum, I can understand why Rags wants to translate the label....its even worth eating the wrapping to get to it...

                        Rags,

                        That candy is also past it's use by date, so get em to throw in a few extra crates of the stuff.

                          Rags, Those pics are AMAZING! The food looks outstanding. Thank you for another fabulous adventure.

                          Hiya Corri! Glad you'll be back with us on a more regular basis.

                          Reg, How is Tassie?

                          Frog, I have a new show for you to check out. It's called whale wars. It's a doco that follows the Sea Shepard to Antarctica to watch them fight the Japanese against whaling. I started it over the weekend and we're on season three already. It's addictive!

                          Undies, I got the job at Starbucks. YAY! I start in 3 weeks. I think I'm going to push to start in 4. I'm bummed because I'll miss Leon, but bills don't pay them selves so it goes.
                          Back to whale wars!
