Into the abyss...Mekong Delta



I have travelled deep into the abyss...in both body and mind.
This morning I wondered if I would ever escape.
I wondered if I would ever blog again.


A hesitant approach...

Since I last wrote...
I have travelled back from the USA to Ho Chi Minh City 
and then onwards to the Mekong Delta in the southern part of Vietnam.

It was fascinating.
There is so much to say...but words escape me.


A restaurant deep in the heart of the Mekong Delta.

The reason for my loss of words?

As we made our way along the Mekong River, 
I thought of what was waiting for me in our home.

We are all curious..

When I returned from the USA last week I discovered yet another
 surprise from Mr. H....a house full of boxes, our container arrived from England.
He did not want to worry me while I was travelling...
he knows how I get (control freak).
He was ambitious enough to do it all on his own, 
direct the entire contents of the container into our home.

Umm....bit of a hiccup with that one.
The living room boxes were in the guest room...
actually most of the contents of the living room was upstairs 
in the guest room and so on.

As we made our way down the Mekong River,
I knew I had to let go and have faith that it would sort itself out.

Being a Virgo..that is no easy task.
I wonder if I could ever just swing from a hammock and look at life with ease.
I usually last all of five minutes. 

Hammock hiatus alongside a water garden filled with flowering pink lotus plants.

And you? 
Could you take the 'manana' approach and think about it tomorrow?
Or are you like me...always taking the most difficult route...
just to know you did it your way.


Taking the high road...by the only means of transportation.

Well...we are back in Ho Chi Minh City and the day is done.
Ten men from our moving company showed up today.
Mr. H arranged for them to come and help me. Smart man.
Everything is now where it should be in Chateau Mango.

One happy Buddah!

All I need now is that hammock...
I think I could last at least 30 minutes and that is saying a lot!

Will I blog again? 
Yes but...rest and revive is in order.
I am taking the 'manana, manana' approach for a few days.

Until then...best wishes to one and all for a wonderful week.
