Well it's Sunday, the day Bud goes home and needless to say I'm a bit sad and nervous to be on my own. But Kenny brings me such joy, so I'm hoping the time will fly by! So that when we can get back to the states we'll be a big family again - such a nice thought!
Kenny is doing so well, as you can see, he loves his Dad so much and they are thick as thieves.
We didn't get any calls from the Embassy this past week, so we're hoping for Monday or Tuesday. There is still a slight chance I could be home by next Friday, but it really is slight! A few of the families here are getting together for Thanksgiving - they'll be about 20 of us, and the restaurant is serving "imported
American Turkey" nice!!!
Last night we traversed the streets of the city and took some pictures - it was probably too late for Ken (he let us know that at bedtime) but we wanted to go out for a nice dinner - steak and mashed potatoes - a little bit of home.
This is how the folks hang out
and have their tea and Pho - cocktail hour....not much room for the peds to walk!
Two dozen roses for $1.50 US - these make me happy and keep the apartment feeling like home!
Welcome to the city....
We miss everybody so much - dreaming of home!
Lots of Love
Claire & Ken

we have so enjoyed and look forward to your pictures and diary entries. I expect you'll be sad seeing Bud leave; but good for the back home boys to have Dad back. we pray your return with Kenny will be soon. It's nice that you've met other waitng families so the time goes a little faster. All our love, Aunt Margaret
