July 7 2014 p-day trip to Mekong Delta with HCMC missionaries

We had a wonderful preparation day outing to the Mekong Delta region in Vietnam with our branch builders from HCMC.  Really a delightful time.

Sister Moon is going to "bee" sorry if she eats this!

Sampling bee pollen, and honey lemon drinks

slithering fun


We just liked this because the bananas in the picture are all different kinds of short bananas
Below a sampling of fruits they had us try

Monday night we had a wonderful FHE with President Duy's family, parents, and siblings and wife -- they treated us to delicious home-made Vietnamese food-- they are always so kind to us.
