We are ready to go to China and now it is a waiting game until we head to the airport around 6am. My wife will only be able to sleep for several hours because she is very excited and her iPad keeps her up. I need to sleep because I am always in charge of the logistics. When I am on the airplane in LA ready for takeoff to China then I will be relaxed. Tried to check in with Air China online but it did not work but call the call center and they confirm all of our reservations and seats. We hope the weather and the airplanes are on time for a smooth journey. Travel Smart and Travel Safe.

If you are in Chengdu China you should definitely take a trip to see the Pandas. They are a beautiful creature and eat a lot of bamboo. Eating fresh bamboo is great and you should try it, it is nothing like the canned bamboo strips we get with our US Chinese food. Chengdu has many options to see the pandas and this article reviews another option. I am not a fan of meeting and greeting animals directly but many tourist seem to like this option.

Two more days until we start the long journey to China and need to finalize my packing today. http://www.bbc.com/travel/feature/20130902-play-one-on-one-with-a-giant-panda This article reviews which countries the Chinese visit and the percentage change and the US has a great growth potential. We need to keep the US inviting to other countries to visit and help the visa process for tourism which will create jobs. I am surprised that the number for Australia was not larger because we know a lot of Chinese travel to Australia to get their children set up to go to school there. We know that South Korea is popular because it is a great shopping destination for the Chinese as well, my wife loves their beauty care and clothes which are fashionable and the movies as well.
Side note, we started to pack yesterday because we received our last purchase of clothes and we are slightly overweight on several bags so I will need to be creative to avoid any extra chargers. We are overweight because we are bringing so many gifts for family and friends. Our clothes only need 1.5 bags but our gifts require 2.5 bags packed.

Before that I had 2 months of blogs each day, which it definitely improves (I think) my writing with my dyslexia. Anyways, tomorrow is our official packing day and took my wife to get everything she wants to take in 1 room. We are packing 2 days before our actual departure date. The weather looks like it is cooling off and will not be too hot in China.
We are scheduling a factory tour in Yiwu to qualify a new factory to make my Hidden Pocket Belt – Money belt which has been selling great. Hope to bring you photos of the factory and the general process for factories in China. Travel Smart and Travel Safe. |
