We're headed home


This is our last night in Hanoi. Madeleine had a really bad teething day - so sorry no new pictures from today. Here's a typical picture of Madeleine though from Sunday. It will be good for us and hopefully good for Madeleine to be home soon. We leave Wed at 12:50 pm and arrive in Seattle technically at 7:00 pm (still Wed). Then we'll arrive in Minneapolis by late evening Thursday. Thanks for all of you who have followed our trip in Vietnam and sent us all good wishes. We really appreciate all the love and support.

Eric and Dad went to the perfume pagoda about 60 km outside of Hanoi. I'll leave you with some pictures from their trip. They took a van 2 hours outside of town and then a 1.5 hr row boat to arrive at the base of the trail leading up to the pagoda.
The perfume pagoda in a cave (there's more behind but no cameras were allowed).
Looking back at the tram down the mountain from the platform.

You are one your way home at this time and I am soooo excited about that! I cannot wait for you all to get home and you can settle in as a family. I really hope that you update the blog so I can see how she settles in! CONGRATULATIONS!

Yay, homeward bound. Vietnam is such a beautiful country but it's so nice to be home and get settled in with your new little one. Thank you for allowing us to follow along. Love all the wonderful pictures!!
