Dear Mom,
I know you're not a fan of heights, but yesterday I was invited up to the top floor of a friend's apartment complex where they have an infinity pool. The heat is growing more intense here, every day a little hotter, and that doesn't convey well in the video.

You begin looking north (pause the video to see details) and you can see where Danang is reclaiming part of the bay to use for building. Actually that reclamation project has been going on for a century and I'm really impressed by how they are shaping the coastline here. The port is across the water at the northwest tip of Son Tra. Then the camera pans over to another water reclamation project and the north-north bridge.
And Dad, you taught me to drive "defensively," always looking for what might happen and being ready to stop or avoid someone else's mistake. And as I was driving recently I realized I was calculating "how far back should I stay from the motorbike ahead of me, in case that refrigerator she's carrying comes unstrapped and falls off?"
Is that a funny sentence to think? Do they not teach that in driver's ed?
Granted, the fridge isn't a full size one, but it's not a mini, either. I stayed well back but then I closed the gap and had the guy I was with snap a photo to send to you.

PS.
Whenever we have visitors, we like to try to go see the Dragon Bridge spout its fire. This was last Friday:
