Election Day, Nga Trang, Vietnam

We stayed up all night and all day to watch this live. After finding no other Americans or a bar showing CNN with audio, we sequestered ourselves in our room for about 12 hours, holding a CNN vigil from 10pm-10am. At one point Max went out to buy some fried bananas and water.

Obama speaks as the new president.

Later that day, we went to the beach and played the first international game of Circle Rules Football with a group of kids we met. Before playing Circle Rules they were practicing their Britney Spears dance routine (boys and girls). After playing Circle Rules they took pictures of us with their cell phones. Truly a day of firsts.

Goodnight changed America.

Love,
Kara and Max

"In these hard times, Americans will need to work twice as hard, to keep Kara Fox's undergarments as spread around the room, to be as dry as they can be."

I love you two a lot.
