Day 4

Hi everybody,

Yesterday morning we had Vietnamese Culture and History class. The instructor was very into it and explained to us the basics of Vietnamese History and Culture. He did not go into great detail, but he did explain some of the basics, such as Vietnam was under China's rule for 1000 years. After Vietnamese History and Culture we had Vietnamese Language. The student helped me really helped a lot because some of the word we were learning were really difficult. The accents on the words are difficult to say. The girl spoke very good English and could understand all of the questions I asked her. After class we had lunch. The lunch was very good. There was chicken, ribs, and beef with green beans.

The site visit we went to was very interesting. We learned about the modernization plans of south Saigon. The plans are amazing. The building structures and houses are going to look great when it is all completed. I want to come back and see it it in 10 years because of how different it already looks in such a short period of time. The model look amazing and the buildings up. They also are planning for the traffic problems they expect. After the site visit we went to the the top of the Rex Hotel. Afterwords, we went to the BB club to dance and than back to the hotel.

see ya later blog.
