I have a friend called Moca Cafe

The title is funny, but it's the truth. The Moca Cafe is a restaurant and is one of the best restaurants that I've been to in Vietnam. I ate some french toast and bacon, one of my favorite meals. It was like half a pig of bacon. Very yummy indeed.

Today we visited the Ho Chi Minh complex. Ho Chi Minh was a famous leader in Vietnam. We went to his Mausoleum and saw his body even though he has been dead for over 40 years. That was kind of neat. They had a very long line and army guards everywhere. We also went to the Ho Chi Minh museum too, but we didn't understand very much about it.

Make a silly face for your family,

Thomas

Thomas,

Wow, what a cool experience. I guess all the guards have to be there to keep any funny business from happening. Pretty cooky, huh?

I think the name of your new restaurant you went to sounds good enough to eat (or drink)! I just found out that our little town of Lincoln is going to get a Starbucks coffee shop. THAT makes Aunt Cindy VERY HAPPY!! They have a lot of delicious ways to have coffee and they even have a fruit smoothie called a Strawberries and Cream that I would think you and your sisters would love. Have your mom and dad get you one sometime. (Do they have any Starbucks in Vietnam?...probably not).

Well, keep enjoying your trip and keep on writing us! We love to read all about your fun times!

Love,

Aunt Cindy
