Writes Barry Russell: "I am here in Viet Nam with my wife and two daughters (Cambodian) completing the adoption of our third daughter. We have been to Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and Hanoi. I can certainly vouch first hand for the sentiments in your recent blog. While traveling to the airport at about 4:30 this morning, we witnessed a huge roadside gathering of Vietnamese buying and selling fresh cut flowers, as well as fresh fruits and vegetables on all manner of motor scooters, The entrepreneurial zeal of these people in the midst of formidable difficulty is truly awe inspiring. While walking back to the hotel my family was caught in a downpour and we had several people approaching us to sell us ponchos."
