Remembering Vietnam
Written By Hoang My Linh (Hoang Phuoc Kimchi)
I went to a Vietnamese snack shop in Little Saigon today, and all the fares there reminded me of my time living in Vietnam. They sold delicacies from Hue, Hanoi, and the regional cities like Tay Ninh. They even had apricot juice from pho co Hanoi (Old City Hanoi)! The pier was windy tonight but it was so nice to sit and enjoy the view of the water with the breeze to refresh me. I sat on the bench overlooking the river and prayed for God to restore to me what’s been lost, to renew my strength, and sustain me. Here are the pictures from today’s outings:

Brown sugar milk tea. I can taste the powder in this one, not my favorite out of all the brown sugar milk teas I've had.
