Waiting for a home...

As we go into week number five in our temporary apartment located in the center of Hanoi we await word of whether we will be able to sign a contract on a nice lakeside 5th floor place we found about a week ago beyond the chaos of the city and on the shores of West Lake. Unfortunately we are contending with a counter bid on the apartment from the second ambassador to Venezuela. We have a backup rental possiblity also located on the lake shore. It is an older home rather than a new apartment and there is road construction in the front of the place, between the garden and the lake, but it will be worth another look if needed.
So we'll see what happens. With fortune on our side the next post will be from a lakeside apartment that has legitimate blog access.
