Final Travel Plans

We have sold our house, so the big items left before the move are selling the two cars, packing and then making the trip to Beijing.

We will be leaving Seattle on August 15th, right after we finish packaging the house and loading everything for the trip to Beijing, then we will drive to Vancouver for a direct flight to China. We will have one day in Vancouver to visit friends and let the grandparents see Zoe one last time before we leave.

Our next trip together back to Vancouver will likely be around Christmas. We haven't made any specific plans yet, but will likely try and combine a business trip to Redmond with our christmas vacation. We likely will be in Vancouver for at least two weeks.

We are trying to sell both the Volvo XC 90 and the Mustang, so if you know anyone that is interested in either let us know.

I was in Beijing for a one week trip earlier in the month and the weather was pretty good, from what I understand fall is the best time of year, so it is probably a good time to be arriving.

We will be staying at the Somerset Grand Fortune Garden serviced apartments for at least the first month. Once we arrive we will get settle and then figure out our long term plans in terms of housing. We still haven't decided between downtown or the suburbs. Chris is leaning towards the suburbs, especially Yosemite.
