The time to depart for China has arrived. Tonight we must do our 45 min pack marathon and get ready to leave early tomorrow morning for our 14 1/2 hour flight.

Since I will have so much time on the airplane, it will give me a chance to plan the menus for next years partie's.

Both hotels have high speed internet, so as usual I will keep this blog updated with information and photos.

Talk to you from Shanghai.
