The Battle of the Blog

Well, I am back online (sort of) after an extended absence, due to not being able to access my blog anywhere in Viet Nam, other than Ha Noi and now Sai Gon. I emailed back home, which I'll now post so that those of you who are reading but who are not on my email list, can keep up! I am guessing that the lack of access to blogs has a lot to do with ideological opposition from the Commies that run this part of the world, but I have no idea why you can access blogs in the big cities but not in any other part of the country. Oh well. So back online, for the moment, anyway; and tomorrow I am heading to Cambodia where hopefully there will not be any issues with blogs!
