The end of November 2018 finds us furiously planning a trip to Asia. On Dec 26 we fly to Shanghai for a family reunion. All of Sun-Ling's immediate family will be there. Should be loads of fun.
Before returning to the USA on May 8, we plan to visit Taiwan, Japan, and Korea. Will post a tentative itinerary - comments please - soon.
