Why the Blog?

These days everyone wants to travel the world. As kids and teens we dream about it. As adults we might often think about it, but never find the time. We dream, but few of us ever reach our goal. I am one of those few.
Soon, starting September 4 , my dad and I are going overseas to three places-Israel, Thailand and Prague, Czech Republic. Well, those are where our homes are going to be, but we will be traveling in Egypt, Sweden, and other places. We will stay in each place for about three months.
I am an eleven-year-old girl named Rachael. My father is Philip and my mother(who is not coming for the whole trip but is visiting) is Margie. In this blog I will keep you posted about events. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Pictures

Hey! We finally uploaded the pictures from Mom's camera, so I have picked out a few that I really like. Here they are!


This is Mom and I with our tour guide Tuan (Two-on.). He was very nice, and spoke great English.



The picture on the right is from the performance I told you about. It is of a girl standing on trays of drinks that are balanced on a jug. She is rolling back and forth without spilling the drinks.


This picture is of Halong Bay. You see what I mean by the fact that the islands are everywhere?



The picture to the right is what you see on the streets all over Hanoi. People sitting on little kindergarten chairs and such! They're lucky they even have a place to set up their tables, since the sidewalks are used as motorcycle parking!




So, here are some of the pictures! I hope that you get a better idea of what Hanoi is like.
