Salutations and greetings to my followers.  The past several days have been full of adventure, intrigue, and excitement.  We began our day by attending classes at the university.  Beginning with a class on history and culture, we learned about the progression of Vietnam from primarily a militaristic perspective.  Apparently there is some animosity between the Vietnamese and their 1,000 year oppressors, the Chinese.  I found this briefly interesting.  We then continued developing our language skills in our Vietnamese class.

Afterwards, we had a meeting with a local realty development firm based in South Ho Chi Minh City.  The myriad cranes and construction equipment located in the south in tangent with the plans that we saw at the meeting was quite impressive.  In a decade or so, Ho Chi Minh City will be an even more sophisticated and interesting place to visit.

My evenings have been very fun - exploring the night life in Ho Chi Minh City has been a unique experience.  At night, the city is rampant with tourists and flooded with social lubrication.  I will not quickly forget my experiences.  That is all for today.  If you would like to know something specific, feel free to comment at the bottom.
