[cold, grateful, excited]

Jus a quick ones here so i wun be so luo-suo:

took a night train for the first time! sat on bunk beds. fun. slept on top. in a cabin with mum and another aunty and her son, Marcus. we woke up in the middle of the night. tok a bit, look out of the window a while and asked for time too. it was fun and a good experience!
arrived in Lao Cai in the early morning arnd 5am (vietnam time). had a light breakfast
head off to Market place in a village. it was a 3-hour journey!! long and winding up and down-hill. boo. but no regrets.
bright and beautiful colours of the clothings the gals are wearing. selling cloths and food and cows and horses and other handicraft

climbed up a small hill to stand near the horses and take photos! not easy but sure was fun. esp goin down the steep slope.

winding road up to the royal view hotel. sitting on the van and riding among the fog. scary. blind corners too. i sat in front
THANK GOD i din vomit! =))
walking among thick fog. not that cold when i walk slowly. but i still have to wear 3 layers of clothes! and gloves. gotta keep myself warm!
caught a sore throat. boo. really hurts. i hope i get well soon!
no heater bed. boo. but i hope the heater in the room works and provides warmth
reminds me SO much of New Zealand and Kunming (my mission trip)! miss the places!
thank God there's internet here
got a chr nearby. feel lyk goin tml but it'll be in vietnamese language. hmm.
waited for 1 hour for dinner
going off to play pictionary with the kids soon! jus lyk how we played for 25mins last night in one of the cabin. great fun!
