Well, I am currently taking it easy at the Taerum household in Calgary, and all is well. Tamara is just finishing up her packing, and I'm all ready to go, so I thought it would be a good time to post.
This morning my parents were kind enough to take me to the Chinese consulate where I recieved my visa to enter China. The deadline to have your application in so that you could recieve it the same day was 11:00 AM and after an early morning and a good drive we were there at 10:15 with a medium sized line up. No problem right? Well the line moved slower than we thought and I was handing in my application literally the last minute (10:59). Anyway, it was no problem and 45 minutes later I am allowed to enter China!
So tommorrow Tamara and I (Thanks for the ride Larry!) leave to catch an 8:00 AM flight to Vancouver where we will meet up with Paul. Together we will then catch a noon flight to Tokyo for a brief layover, and arrive in Bangkok at about 10:45PM. (And I think it will be Wednesday?)
So that's it. Lot's of flying. I am quite excited. We are almost very literally on the other side of the planet. Does anyone know if the stars will look different? Or is that a north-south thing?
Thanks to everyone for all the goodbye's. I already miss you Laura.
