For those on the Vietnam Airlines flight leaving SIN at 1:15 pm today, Tkey75 and I have arranged to meet in the lobby of the Grand Hyatt at 10:00 am and will organize taxi/taxis from there. I believe there are a few staying at the Marriott/GH who may be on this flight so if you wish to join us please be in the GH lobby by 10:00 am.

Regarding the plan for tomorrow, we will be meeting at the Hyatt and leaving for the tour at 9:00.
I ordered the bigger vehicle and the cost will be between $50 and $60 USD. Make sure you get your Vietnam dongs so I can pay the tour operator.

I got back to Arizona earlier this afternoon. My first do was a success. My thanks to everyone for the fun and special kudos to Brad and Gary for their hard work.
I see more do's (and hopefully post-do's) in my future.

Great to see everyone in SIN last weekend. Brad and Gary- thanks for the organising, which I know is always "challenging" but you always make it work.

Thanks to bschaff1 and everyone else (you know who you are) for running the jokes on me. It's always funny when the joke's not at your expense...
