It's a musical, but with a lot of Aussie humour and whimsicality. It's the first film to be allowed to film in the country since the war. (Supposedly. I'm not sure where Indochine was filmed?) Anyhow, I'm not sure if it's going to be released there, but if it gets international release do see it. It's being hailed as one of the best Australian films of the year, possibly the decade. And Vietnam looks beautiful in it, despite the war scenes. I haven't cried or laughed so much in a long time. I think you'd like it too.<br />Janelle McCulloch | Library of DesignJanelle McCullochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16006727386237836016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-52081312480384619132012-08-11T10:11:07.005-04:002012-08-11T10:11:07.005-04:00I am so happy to have found your blogs!

It sounds wonderful and yet a bit scary as well! I guess I'm very much the homebody! We leave tomorrow to take our youngest to college but it's only 2 hours away and I'm dreading that! I can't imagine if it were a world away! I cannot wait to catch up on all of your blog posts next week when life settles down a bit! ( oh, and then we move our daughter to New Orleans which feels like a world away! Ha!)

Since we both are going somewhere totally different (dubai-vietnam) reading your (mostly positive) views was great, thanks. I have a photo of a French door and will write the passage 'one door opens etc' on it, because it's really true. My girls are younger so no overseas colleges for us for now (I will have to come back to you when the time is there....) can't imagine how that must feel, good luck for your kids.<br />Anyway, we are heading to Dubai next week Saturday, lots to do before that so time for me to wrap this long comment up, night night!<br />Maureen xDaydream Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14092794695138108197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-66099806130803539782012-08-10T18:23:07.800-04:002012-08-10T18:23:07.800-04:00Aah..

I am sure that in such a place you had time to rest, relax, and read.<br /><br />I am sure that life will take a bit more to settle in, with taking Miss Claire to college, and getting Conor started, then the time for you to explore, decorate and start a routing will begin. I cannot wait to follow along!<br /><br />I hope you have a wonderful weekend, ElizabethElizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acornshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044933540074342177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-9627326730321871922012-08-10T14:12:00.648-04:002012-08-10T14:12:00.648-04:00as always....

It is all just so beautiful and very different from what I imagine it would be like. I love to be surprised. And, I am still loving that mango. M. is eagerly (and a bit nervously) waiting for move in day in 2 weeks time. I was thinking of you and the logistics of getting your daughter all the way to the U.S. We're going to turn her "drop off" weekend into an anniversary celebration for us and try to refocus on that as opposed to the "drop off" part.

How lovely that you are playing tourists, so often we move to a new area and fall straight into life so that when we move on we are lucky to have seen much of the surrounding areas at all!!
