Over a year since I have posted to this blog, and we are about to leave again, this time for China and Vietnam. We have a house sitter for the cat, notified the bank, bought hand-powered toothbrushes in lieu of our Sonicares, and secured visas. Asia calls - we've been away for too long (well, I have, at least. The Spouse was there last year, just long enough to spend a few weeks waiting out a riot in a steaming, stinking apartment in Bangkok).

We will go first to Shanghai, spend a few days there, and thn travel to Shaoxing, which was described to me by my fried Wendy Song as a small, historical village with few foreigners. This "village" has nearly a million residents and no central heating. After that we head to Saigon, and from there we have no plans. Perhaps Mui Ne, perhaps Hoi Anh...perhaps both...
