April 1 1110 Vietnam Time Hoi An

Well, the bus to Hue leaves at 1315, about three hours from now. I expect to be in Hue around 1700 or so, after which we'll meet Khanh for dinner. Tomorrow (Saturday) will involve going to visit the boat dwellers, Thuong, and folks who will benefit from our April 4 duck and pig delivery. Sunday will be a "day off", but Monday will kick things into high gear, a pace that suits me just fine. "Hanging around" is very tough, as I'm only here for four weeks and must make every possible minute count. I've written to Thong with hopes of being able to return to Duong's place to get that well project solidified and to meet with hamlet officials regarding candidates for Duong's carts. Without Thong, it can't be done. The pressure is on "damn guide".

Here is a link to the 2016 trip photos to this date:

OK, now to pack up my belongings and gear up for a move to Hue. There's still time to sponsor 50 ducks w/pool ($80) or a pig ($60). It's Friday late morning in Vietnam and we'll be delivering the critters on Monday, so time is of the essence. I'll provide photos of disabled person benefiting from your generosity. I'm seeing severely disabled people working harder than you could imagine...inspiring.

To be continued....
