Review – Le Meridien Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam

March 13, 2018March 12, 2018 Vinh  Travel  le meridien, SPG, vietnam  Leave a comment

Review – Hamilton the musical

March 6, 2018March 5, 2018 Vinh  Misc  hamilton  9 Comments

After reselling so many Hamilton tickets, I finally decided to take some of those profits to take the wife to go see the show while it was here in Seattle.  Rather, the wife would have been very upset if I hadn’t taken her.  Since these were my last pair of tickets that I couldn’t even […]
