Mai Chau Part II

There are 4 other people staying at the guesthouse, a couple from Hanoi, and two guys, one from France and the other from Japan. It's a really fun group and I am now really looking forward to spending the next few days here. Tomorrow a wedding is taking place, starting at 10am and guaranteed to go well into the night. 700 people are expected to attend, and its all happening just steps from the guesthouse. We have already been invited to attend the ceremony and take part in the festivities, so it should be a fun day.

The guesthouse is basic--a traditional stilt house, with mats on the floor for beds, and shared toilets and showers. But everyone has been so welcoming and generous, it makes it a memorable experience. I have been overly blessed with good fortune, and for the I am extremely grateful!
