pacific delights

Leaving for asia in just over 36 hours! Up first is hong kong, then moving on to shanghai, xi'an and beijing. Since I spent two months in hong kong a couple years ago, I'm most excited about getting back here and doing/seeing my favorite things. I'm actually giddy. This will be the part of the trip that's more laid back/less scheduled, while our stops in mainland will be accompanied by a tour guide. Typically I'm an ocd planner (as evidenced by my computer printed packing list), but as my father's more so, I haven't spent the hourly equivalent of two weeks researching each destination and the top places to see there. He has, though, so I'm not worried.
Cooper's also packing, but not for a trip to china. He'll be visiting with two different sets of friends- one with a baby and one with a dog. He's a bit nervous as he won't be able to protect me from (ie- bark at) random strangers who approach me, but is excited to have his first sleepover with a non-family member.
