If you ve never seen a fire breathing dragon bridge, then you ve never seen the Rong Bridge in Da Nang, Vietnam.
The 2,185-foot-long (666-meter-long), six-lane bridge is the longest suspension bridge in Vietnam. Da Nang is one of the biggest port cities in Vietnam, and the Rong Bridge spans the Han River just before it empties into Da Nang Bay. This is all well and good, but the most exciting thing about the Rong Bridge is that it s shaped like a sinuous, sparkly golden dragon, modeled after the stylized dragons from the Ly Dynasty that ruled over Vietnam in the 11th and 12th centuries. The Rong Dragon also breathes fire on weekends after 9 p.m. and on special occasions.

Now what do we do?
We had blissfully been flying all over the place like birds until this year when the carpet beneath us was suddenly yanked away.
Months later, we’re chomping at the bit to go abroad as if all jazzed up in our finest on a Saturday night, but with nowhere to go.
No international travel means no dreams, no dreams mean no planning, and that’s a gaping hole to fill since half the fun lies in cooking up the adventures in the first place.
