We have been looking for tomato plants but couldn't find any. Hoping for tomatoes and green pepers, we went to the market and searched for the seeds and then looked for pots to plant in. When we got home, our landlord gave us some potting soil and Elder Morgan planted four pots. We have put them on our porch the goes around our apartment on two sides. We have no idea if we can grow these plants here. We can't see any reason why they won't grow, it's warm and moist with 90 degrees and 90 percent humity.

We Celebrated Dad's birthdy in Style
We had a chocolate birthday cake and candles. Sister Sasser, pictured with Dad had a birthday on the 4th, so we celebrated both. We had all the couple missionaries here for Family Home Evening and we went up on the 6th floor to overlook the city. It was going to be a grand occation, but it rained a lot that day and people had some trouble getting here since our road was flooded. But it all worked out and we had pizza, soda, birthday cake. One of the couples that had served a mission to Zimbabwe brought a presentation of growing vegetables gardens. We did a line dance after that.
Another Dental Clinic
We still have patients that come even though we have been to the branch several times, but the line isn't as long.
We enjoy the people and they are so grateful. One little lady came in from the country to get a tooth pulled.

River Trip up the Mekong
Some of the Senior Couples travel up the Mekong River and saw another Vietnamese floating village, more cattle that look like they haven't eaten in weeks, a Wat and some silk weaving villages. We had an enjoyable little trip for about four hours. I bought two silk scarfs that were woven there.
Friday Elder Morgan and I stopped at the new church building that has a completion date the first of January '08.
