Well, the make-long-blog-entries bit isn't going so well, I'm living my life faster than I can write about it.
Here's the executive summary.
Day 1. Saturday. We get on plane(s) and fly to Hong Kong.
Day 2. Sunday. We get on train and cross the border to Shenzhen. We get ripped off in several ways, but that's okay. It's a fun day.
Day 3. Monday. We rip off a taxi driver. Take tour around island, go on sampan ride, awesome bus ride up Victoria Peak where sky is murky. Eat offal for dinner.
Day 4. Tuesday. Kerri and DD return to Shenzhen. I leave DS to vegetate with cable TV to see our ship come in. Which it does. I buy software unlocked iPhone. Girls return from Communist China laden with shopping success. Hillary's speech is viewed in public with deep interest. Nobody here will vote for her. Hillary dolls sold on street corners at huge prices for people to take home and destroy in inventive ways.
Day 5. Wednesday. Today. In half an hour we'll take offspring to airport train, wave goodbye, then run giggling through Hong Kong to ship, where we will board and harass the steward for real coffee with real milk.
