They left Monday from NYC through Hong Kong. I think today is their yesterday. I’m always a wee bit nervous when FD travels to the other side of the globe…but I get over it quickly…just as soon as she checks in with dear ol’ Pops. I’m so proud of her and that adventurous spirit.

Have a good time T-Babe!!!

hey guys!

mark and i have arrived.  finally.  by about hour 16 i was getting real snippy with mark – ha, mostly because my ankles have swollen and they won’t go down.  never happened before… i have cankles!  cathay pacific international flights rock by the way.  we checked in 3 1/2hr early (don’t know why) but the check-in attendant took pity on us and gave us an invitation to the terrace club – VIP baby.  free food, drink, even alchohol and beds!!!  we were so grateful.  and the airline did not stop with the food and beverages for the entire 15 hours.  now we are crawling into bed at tita karen’s house after some chicken and pork adobo and mango dinner. 

love you all and i will send an update soon.
