JIV: Phu Quoc- Island Paradise #6
Yesterday’s snorkeling tour was amazing! For today, we’re going to just relax and recover for tomorrow’s flight back to Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). In spite of yesterday’s long and eventful day, we were less exhausted than expected. I always enjoyed the view of the pool from the dining area. I ordered up some seafood […]
JIV: Phu Quoc- Island Paradise #5
April 23, 2011
Survived the torrential rainstorm from the night before, this morning was especially brilliant. We woke up feeling good and appreciative of all that we had experienced and ready for some more. We had a high-carb breakfast, anticipating that we’d need it for the snorkeling tour today. After breakfast, we were picked up for Anh Thu’s […]
JIV: Phu Quoc- Island Paradise #4
March 9, 2011
Another beautiful morning in paradise! However, it wasn’t as early as usual since my adventure the day before had me totally beat. We had planned to return to Saigon with my brother Nhin this day but since we had so much fun, we decided to extend our stay for the week. That required a flight […]

February 11, 2011
We arrived on Phu Quoc island yesterday. This morning, we were rested and ready to enjoy some breakfast at the Kim Hoa Resort restaurant overlooking the pool. For breakfast, we ordered some French toasts, eggs and toast, 7UP, milk and iced-coffee. We could have sat down by the beach but that took longer and we […]
JIV: Phu Quoc- Island Paradise #1
January 29, 2011
There is an island in the southern part of Vietnam, in the shape of a miniature South American continent, that was once used by US coalition forces during the Vietnam War. (By the way, in Vietnam, they call it the American War.) Remnants, if only slightly, of its military past can be seen from roadsides […]
JIV: Phu Quoc Motorbike Mayhem
December 4, 2010
My first time on a motorbike on the streets of Phu Quoc with my brother, Nhin (shirtless). This could have been our ‘last picture’ the search party would have used to find us … because our motor biking adventure took us into the heart of Phu Quoc’s north-central wilderness — undeveloped, red-dirt, muddy terrain. We […]
