Today we woke up with the news that Mr. Waffle was nowhere to be found!!!!! He didn't show up at the hotel but his plane had landed last night. We were all concerned about Mr. Waffle and his whereabouts. The group came up with many theories about why he didn't make it, one if them being he got too drunk and passed out and couldn't catch his flight (by Laurie!!!)
We had the morning free and we all hoped he would show up. I spent my morning finishing all my dongs (Vietnamese money) and shopping for souvenirs for all the kids I take care of.
By 1:30pm we had to leave our hotel in Hanoi and headed to the airport to catch our flight to Vientiane... Sans Waffle! In the bus we were hoping that he would be at the airport waiting for us (even though he didn't have the flight info)
About 10-15 mins after we departed the hotel OLeang got a call from the hotel! Waffle had arrived!!! Yeay! OLeang told him to grab a cab back to the airport where we would be waiting for him... 45 mins later we all had the pleasure to meet Matthew Waffle, a 20 year old Canadian who for the first time in his life had taken an airplane... Well, actually 4 in less than 30 hours!
