We took Susu and Dan to the airport Friday night after having dinner together. They were quite the impressive packers, considering all the wedding accrutrements they needed to bring, including 2 wedding dresses. The airline was strictly enforcing their carry-on weight limits, and after a little bit of shuffling, they managed to get the weight properly distributed between their bags. However, it's all the same weight going on the plane, which is why all the shuffling seemed a bit comical. While we waited for their bags to be "weight approved", Cathay Air provided delicious mints for us to snack on at the counter. The first class people may have gotten Flowers at their counters, but we preferred the mints.
This morning we received and email from Dan and Susu saying, "it's so hot and humid here, 30 Celsius. it's also raining off and on throughout the day. you may want to bring an umbrella, or you can just buy a cheap one here." Good to know they got there safely, but now I have to debate which jacket to bring.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone in China in just a few days.
