Well, it's 4:20 am and we're (well I'm) up and about getting ready for Shanghai! Apologies for the distinct lack of blogs since the news that we were off to Shanghai, but things got a little hectic before we left! A few quick updates: we had an amazing holiday in India where Joe learned to paraglide and met some brilliant people; we had a great last few weeeks in Oman saying goodbye to all of our friends and generally having a great time seeing places for the last time including the partaking in the Radisson all you can eat/drink buffet!
So... After a few weeks of Chinese lessons (thank you immensely to my very patient teacher), I have a smattering of Mandarin under my belt and a basic understanding of Shanghai customs and culture. I am sure that we are heading off for an amazing adventure in an incredible country. More new experiences and people await at the end of a 13-hour flight.
Shanghai here we come!
p.s. Thanks to all of those avid followers who could pinpoint the exact date of the last Oman blog. Sorry, I will endeavour to be a little more conscientious!
