Our last day in Shanghai, we head home tomorrow (Friday). It has been a fabulous trip, and although we did not get as much sight seeing as a traditional holiday would have enabled, we did mix with NG's colleagues and their families, which was way more fun. I shall always remember the gift of this trip, partly because it was so unexpected.

Yet another resolution for me - I will let go the fuss around Valentine's Day. Sure, it was at a Val D party that NG first danced and then kissed me 23 years ago, but I guess an impromptu trip to China has more meaning and class? I was planning an elaborate memory book for our 23 years, but I think it puts pressure on both of us. So, I will make as if it is just another day, and plan to surprise NG some other time.

On that note, I'm heading off to the shops, those that are open anyway, for some last minute shopping.
