Another day of marking time. It appears that we did so much work earlier in the week that we are out of things that have to be done before we go.
The day got off to a good start with a visit by Sherman, our realtor. There was bit of final negotiating to do and in a matter of minutes the prospective buyer had agreed to the deal. So, hopefully later in the day we have a signed agreement and that is the end of selling side of Trattle. Now, lot 11...{This turned out to be true and Trattle is indeed, sold}.
Checking the temperatures in China and it appears that it may not be too bad: Beijing, 19, Shanghai, 13, Hong. Kong, 24. I cannot get any of the smaller towns but it appears to be somewhat warmer than at home.
We had tea with long time friend Angela today. She is between houses and is in a rather uncomfortable housing arrangement temporarily. We offered Angela the basement suite until she gets settled, maybe the end of May, and she accepted. So, it appears that there will be a house-sitter here while we are away. It was all rather spontaneous but, such is life.
Tomorrow will be a busy day for us as we have a birthday party to go to in the afternoon/evening and Angela to get settled in the morning. All good. Out of the house by 8:30 Sunday morning.
I see by the news reports we have a report of a new strain of bird flu in the shanghai area and the smog situation in Beijing and North Korea sabre rattling. Well, we are bashing on regardless but we are packing and dressing appropriately.
Pictures...
Angela at the dinner table.
Doug and Fellette ready to head off to China.
it would appear that I have some skills to acquire regarding thecropping of the pictures: they appear to get cut off in my iPad???
If you click on the photos they will show the whole photo, not the cutoff version displayed!! I hope.
