Seattle to Hanoi

October 18, 2010
Our team left Seattle at 2am on October 19, 2010 - first stop: Taipei and a short layover. We left Taipei just in time to avoid 'Supper Typhoon Megi' waiting in the South China Sea after this deadly weather system strucked Manila. October is still 'monsoon' season in Southeast Asia.

23 hours later, we arrived in Hanoi ...


... with our luggage (almost 2,000 lbs., more than half are donated goods)

Kids Without Borders in-country representative Thao (holding pink handbag) welcomes us to Hanoi. Thao grew up in the Hoa Phuong Orphanage and she was one of the first young adult in the KWB Teach Me To Fish program.
