Dear Ly,

Thank you so much for your lovely email.  Sorry it has taken so long to answer you.  We were also very disappointed to miss meeting you before we left Hanoi, but I hope you are feeling better now.

We loved the gifts you left for us, and I’m glad your kids enjoyed the bits and pieces we had collected for you. The soccer ball was a special thank you to you from Alannah for saving and delivering her special soft toy, Sophie the dolphin back to her safely from Bhaya junk.

It is hard to believe we are back in Oz, and as expected, we’re finding it hard to settle down. We took over 1200 photos, so we have to sort them out, but looking through them brings back a lot of good memories.

It would be great to catch up with you if you make it to Melb in Autumn. In the meantime, thanks again for all your help.

Regards and best wishes, 

Deb Hosemans
