So got up this morning very early to go to the embassy interview. They told us our interview was at 7:30 a.m. But the Visa attorney told us to be there by 6 a.m. I have never seen anything like this before in my life. Completely crazy. We get there at 6 a.m. and across the street from the embassy they're asking us to park and sit on these little stools while they try and sell you crap, food drinks etc. The damn doors of the embassy don't even open until 7:00 a.m. so at 6:50 everybody walks across the street and gets in line to go into the embassy. Probably 200 people long. Wait, wait, wait some more. Finally at 7:05 when they open the doors they have two security guards patting everybody down. Vietnamese subcontractors as guards outside the embassy. So you get inside and stand in line again for another 45 minutes. Then everything in your pockets has to go through the scanner and you go through security again basically. Then when you get inside you're in another line for the head clerk to check your paperwork and give you a number for the day. Our number was 2048. Sit down and wait an hour. Number is called. Go to the window. Check your paperwork. Paperwork okay. Go sit down again. Wait another hour. Your number is called again. Go to the window answer a few questions properly. Voila you now have passed your embassy interview. Only asked me two questions. Only asked her two questions. The process of getting through the interview was quite simple. But the rest of it was complete bullshit. Anyhow, happy to have her visa approval for her and her daughter now. Will be scheduling to come back to America in early April. Went back to the hotel drank a few beers ate something went to sleep at 1:00 p.m. and we got up at 5:30 p.m. . Now getting ready to go out to dinner someplace. All in all a productive day excluding the bullshit standing in line and waiting most of the morning. Seems to me that if you have an important interview scheduled at the embassy you show up on time for your interview you go in and sit for your interview. Everything is completely backwards here in Vietnam. But you just have to roll with the punches
