November 20th was a special day in Vietnam... Teacher's Day!!! On this day, all the teachers at school were recognized for all their hard work. We received roses and gift certificates for a popular store. Students brought in presents... it was awesome! I received lots of cards, flowers, fancy tea, 2 scarves, a hand-made Christmas tree skirt, a key chain, bottle of wine, and a huge cake. John received restaurant gift certificates, a dress shirt, a silk pyjama shirt, an Armani (likely fake!) belt, a backpack, a bunch of chocolate, and a mysterious elixir in a bottle for his "lungs" among other things. Too bad every day wasn't Teacher's Day!!!
