  I know the sensation Mike - counting days, counting hours, counting sheep....checking her picture every hour with a big grin introducing one ear to the other. Best of luck as the last few days before departure feel so painfully slow.

Mike,

I am not sure what kind bags of milk you but or Jessica's consumption of it but I have noticed that Peggy goes through one Walmart box of milk a month.  She does share it with her (I guess I should begin to start call her our) granddaughter about two to three times a week.  The little booger head is calling me Ya ya and yes Peggy says I can call her a booger head.

Back to the milk.  If you are taking 2 suitcases, 2 boxes is what I take and the weight is minimal.

Super stuff Mike, looking forward to the trip update

Sounds good so far Mike.  Hope you get a chance on updating but don't sacrifice your time to talk with us.  Your time is so short there.  Have a blast.

especially with my memory would have been easier.

Mike,

the airport was just abnormally busy at that time which is why you loaded the plane the way
you did. i never left that way here but i have had to land out in left feild and take a bus to the terminal
a couple of times here. leave it to the chinese just land the plane and we will get the people on board
or off board.

Actually you'll find that quite common with many airports.  The old HK airport was like that...so was the airport in Manila about 25 years ago...  Chicago does that as well... As does Narita (Tokyo) you'll find that most of the flights where you have to board by bus are usually domestic flights or when they arrive during prime time.  Too many planes, not enough gates ready.

My first trip back in Dec 2008, has it been that long ago already.... when I arrived in Beijing from Los Angeles, we deembarked onto buses. And this trip a month ago to Heathrow we left on buses and also 2 weeks later went by bus to the airplane. So all of these flights were  international.

Anyways.... Mike have a great wedding and I can't wait to see the wedding pictures. I wonder how many outfits you will attire before retiring for the evening 

And I bet Paul will adore some photos with a fancy hat adorn upon your head

I'll say my "Congratulations!" now and a good happy life. Don't disappear on us.
