david_dawei Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 The last six weeks of work have seen about two days off at most; the next six weeks are as busy... I just realized today that next monday is a holiday so it's a short work week; With that in mind, I decided I should go a week to China for New Years. So booked them today. This is the big advantage of having a longer term visa and flyer miles... this trip is costing me $35.00 to go I've never been to china for less than a month, and a month always seems too short. So now I'm in a position to compress a month of fun into a week... not sure how much jiu that means, but I can imagine Link to comment

Batmaniac Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 I don't know if I could go for just a week, jet lag and all that, but you'll have fun. I unfortunately have yet to be in China for CNY. Someday . . . Link to comment

david_dawei Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 this trip will go down as my wildfire trip; it happened so fast and already I have people asking me to be in 5 cities in my 7 days... when I am with my friends in china, they characteristically want to know, "what is the plan".... to which I always reply, "we'll see"... Now they use that term if I ask them if they have any plans... Link to comment

We finished with NVC and now we are waiting for our consulate appointment, so that's when I'll go. I was checking flights last night...I found one for $700 so I looked at the seats available, and there were no open seats on the hop from EWR to PEK...were they teasing me? Link to comment
