So on our trip to Vietnam in August 2006, we will make a stop over in Seoul, South Korea.  How do I make these strange timings?  So now North Korea is firing off missiles all over the place.  So Heide and I are entering the flamed-up epi-center of re-ignited embers of the last remaining remnant of the Cold War.  Then, if North Korea does not kill us, we will move on to Vietnam, the epi-center of the Bird Flu.  Heide seems to be so good natured about the prospects of the odd developing sequence of events.  She is such a good sport.  Perhaps however, next time I need a photographer see will politely claim she is busy.
