John, as you know .. you speak for many here that have found their wonderful Lady. Maybe we have found the "Fountain of Youth"? It definitely keeps me young!  :P :)

Good to hear from you again John. I hope you are settling in okay. Yesterday I had the time to reread your whole thread, with all the ups and downs. I hope that is a rhetorical question that you ask yourself as to why you fell in love with a woman so far away. I always feel like saying to friends and relatives when they ask me why I travel half way round the world to meet a woman when there are so many here, ' If you've got to ask, you'll never know'. I hope things progress well for you this year

great story John, I do wish we could have caught up with the two of you. As for now, we are in full swing with "planning" and I have a full plate (about 18 hours a day) for tax season. let us know if you will be in town during mid/late March.

perfectly understandable, you are of course invited on March 16 if you're in town.

I'll be the one in the White trimmed monkey suit and my buddy/brother of many years from the army will have the red trim.

We are kinda waiting to see if the local news reports an invasion in Handan, considering they see me and John regularly, but I'm gonna have family and a friend or two along. That's alot of laowei in that poor town.   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

You little bloody ripper.

Congrats to the both of you, one day I'll know the feeling you are experiencing right now and as for her reception at the airport when she arrives well our list of family and friends is growing all the time.

Anyway John, I wish you and MinYing all the best and hope the next three months don't drag too much.

Cheers

PS I'll bet you can't wipe the smile off your face right now
This is the way to go

Great stuff John, make sure you read the email that the embassy would have sent her.  It outlines all the entitlements etc.  Do not believe the bit about not being able to get a Medicare card.  She is entitled to a temporary one valid for about 1 year then apply again.  If I can be of any other assistance just let me know.

That reminds me Jason,  I asked medicare the other day what i had to do about including my wife on my card and they said we have to wait until she arrives and then bring her in and apply for it then.
Is that how it works?
