下次再见 (see you next time)
The post title says "xia ci zai jian" which is the Chinese equivalent of auf wiedersehen. I'm leaving behind a lot of good friends and happy times in China and I refuse to say "goodbye", so I am saying "see you next time".
This may be my last post from China, the next time you hear from the traveling Osbornes should be from Willow Grove, PA.
The moving company came Wednesday and packed, stacked, and moved everything out. It all fit, except for my nice office chair, but we'll find a good home for it. There is a lot going to GP's family in Nanjing - they come Tuesday with a truck - and the rest will fit in our suitcases. I've taken three big bags of foreigner stuff (mixer, coffee grinder, English books and toiletries/food from US) to my friend at the American bar. Much better than throwing it away and there's no way I'm taking it BACK to the US. I got a free drink for each bag, too ;)
I am getting over my sinus infection, but now it looks like the mouse is getting sick. We'll take her to the Singapore health clinic in a few minutes and hopefully it doesn't get worse.
Flight leaves Pudong Wednesday evening, going to Chicago. Two or three hours there and then on to Philly. Wave as we pass over :)
