30.1.12

In Tad Lo in Laos, we were invited to join an extended family for some dinner on the floor outside their house. They were Vietnamese living in Laos. The head of the house tried out his English on us and was full of talk and probably had a few too many Laos Laos rice whiskeys since he tried to set his daughter up with Emmet! His children, in laws, wife and mother were all a bit shyer than him. They asked us about our story and very quickly we became the talk at the table...they all were struggling with the idea that we were together for 11 years and then we decided to get married. The father explained that it's not so hard to get married in Vietnam, find nice man for my daughter, 1 month, married. Easy!
