Dennis and Lynel host a farewell party for a Population Council colleague, featuring a jug of "straw wine." Sticky rice, a sweet form of the grain common in Southeast Asia, is left to ferment for weeks in this jug, creating a sweet kind of rice beer. In a tradition from the highlands of Vietnam, guests suck it out communally through long bamboo straws.

The Longs live next to the west lake at the end of a long series of alleyways. To get out to the road on a rainy day, the girls often travel by cyclo, a three-wheeled pedicab. A group of drivers usually waits for customers nearby, all day and into the evening.
