What's up everybody. Adam here. Long time no talk. How're ya doin'? This'll be the first in a long series of incredibly overdue blogs about the Stevens family follies in Vietnam. Some of you may be thinking, "weren't they there in May?" Well the answer is yes, indeed they were here in May, and indeed I've been quite busy since then! Ha! Well maybe that's not the case, but there have been a couple of things preventing me from getting down to business. First there was the matter of our semi-broken computer. For a month or so it refused to turn on, and the prospect of sitting for hours in a smoky online cafe didn't really thrill me too much. The second thing standing in my way was just that, the hours. I kept imagining how long it would take to write a story of that size and, combined with my penchant for procrastination, well, it just didn't get done. So consider this the briefest of introductions to a story that shall be unfolded for you over the next two weeks, one day for each day of the holiday. Also, a special thanks to my mom, who gave this lazy writer the idea to do this in installments. I hope you enjoy what's to come!
