Right now it’s the morning before I leave for Dubai, and most of the last three entries have been written this morning. I leave for the airport in about 20 minutes and although I have much more to write, I need to finish packing. My next entry will probably be when I’m back home.

I’m in the Hanoi International Airport right now. I was packing up and getting ready to go and realized that I couldn’t find my camera. Shit. I got a call from the front desk of the hotel telling me that the driver was waiting to take me to the airport, so there I am scrambling around looking for my camera with no time to go through all my stuff to see if I packed it somewhere strange. Anyway, I didn’t find it, but to be honest, if I was going to lose it the timing couldn’t be more perfect. The display was broken so I was going to have to buy a new one when I got back to Dubai anyway, and except for the sdcard and the photos that were on the camera, there really isn’t anything to be sorry about.  I keep trying to tell myself that, and in time I think I may actually begin to believe it.
