From where I stand...USA to Vietnam

I count the days and months by the sun,

the moon and rainbows.

It is a glorious thing to watch,

no matter where I stand in the world.

Sunrise over Chateau Mango in Vietnam.

I have been away these past four months,

doing what many expats do during the summer months,

spending time back in their home countries with family and friends.

A few key moments are highlighted here.

No matter where I am,

all I need to do is follow the moon, the sun and a rainbow

to stay connected to the people I love.

From our home in Saigon, Chateau Mango..

Rainbow over travellers palm..

To our home, Tahilla Farm in the USA...

Alongside a mountain...

Over a meadow...

A rainbow comes to call.

It was lovely to be there,

it is lovely to be back in Saigon.

I feel restored...I am ready.

Beep Beep Saigon...

bring it on!
