We are moving to Hong Kong July 16th -- I won't be blogging for awhile! Not until I find us a new home and internet connection. :-( Wish us luck.

Dear Elaine

I hope you and the family have a peaceful move, that you find the right place to live, right school, right everything. I look forward to keeping in touch, but anyway, will keep an eye open for your successes!
