As I boarded a plane to Vietnam, I knew nothing more about the country other than that the people had endured years of war and that it was the home of some tasty noodle soup named Pho. I also had zero idea of where in Vietnam I was headed. Zack planned out this entire trip; partially because I was preoccupied with other things at home and partially because he naturally is the itinerary planner out of the two of us. As he planned, he decided to keep the itinerary a secret from me as a fun way to celebrate my birthday. It wasn't until I had my boarding pass in hand at the airport, that I was aware of where we were headed first. So basically, he "whisked me away" to Vietnam! I know what you're thinking... Zack is the sweetest husband ever and this is just way too romantic. Well, the first part of that is absolutely true... he is the sweetest. And the second, well... if you consider being whisked across some of the craziest streets in the world, dodging motorbikes left and right (hoping you come out alive) and dripping with sweat as make your way through dusty street vendors, than yes, how romantic. :)
