The Law
I forgot to write about something that happened on the way home from the airport picking Sister Rosalie up. I had Landry and her in my car and Mike(who had to meet us) was in his car. We were crossing over the spillway and Landry decided she was going to throw a fit... and I mean a BIG fit too. Sister Rosalie was sitting in the back with her and all of the sudden I looked in my rear view mirror and Sister Rosalie had taken Landry was almost completely out of her car seat! She thought 'Well she's not happy so I'll just get her out and hold her'. I almost wrecked just watching it happen...it was almost in slow motion. I told her in my nicest, I know you don't understand the rules around here and you were just trying to help but you can't understand me very well voice that she has to stay in her seat because it is against the law. When I said that she told Landry 'You must sit back down because the police come for you!' I was laughing and almost crying at the same time. I had about 1 1/2 miles before I could pull over and get her strapped back in. In the mean time she was propped back on her elbows screaming even louder. Can you imagine how confused she must have been! Anyway, I got her strapped back in and we were on our merry way without incident.
In Vietnam the traffic there is the most unbelievable thing you have ever seen. I feared for my life just crossing the street there because there are no rules and there are 3 million motorbikes in Ho Chi Minh City alone. They will put up to 5 people on one bike with children of all ages and no helmets. I guess one little baby in an SUV is nothing compared to that chaos! I don't know when we will ever be able to visit Vietnam again but you can be assured it won't be before Landry is out of a car seat!
