Dear Alex Tran, Now we are safely back to Västerås in Sweden and I have started to work again. We have had -20 deg C the last week so we miss the temperatures in Hanoi. Our memory from your fantastic country is still fresh in our minds and I am writing the diary on my computer. Your actions made our travel and stay in Vietnam safe and easy. I will always remember you as my dear friend and a very nice person...
