-^-for posterity-^-

da lat. what a beautiful city with chintz all around.

today we went to the "lake of sorrows". there wasn't any water in the lake. it could have more fittingly been called the mud-hole of misery. there were also statues of indians and deer all around. we got a few pictures of jota perched on top.

this trip is turning out to be quite a vacation. i'm learning what it means to be a teacher on a field trip. there is much frustration and responcibility.

tonight we go to the market and buy odd things.
