The Heat

Well, it has finally happened. We have been told since we arrived that the government likes to shut off the electricity for hours at a time. It might be one section of town for a few hours and then another section of town. Up until this point, we have not seen it happened. Well, it finally happened!

We have just arrived back from Phu Quoc and are back in the town were Mitchell's grandmother lives. When we arrived at the hotel, they informed us the electricity had been shut off. We have been sitting here for almost two hours with no electricity, which equals no air. As I write this, I am also fanning myself with a book to keep the sweat at bay. I'm really hoping it comes back on soon, or it's going to be a long night.
