And they're off



It's just after 5AM. I've been ready for 13 minutes. Amy is still drying her hair and putting away her toiletries which fit neatly into four bags (mine fit into one ziploc). In about an hour we leave the Portland Intl Jetport on the only international flight to justify the airport's name. First to Toronto and then to Hong Kong. 17 days in Hong Kong, Ningbo, Beijing, Shanghai, and Seoul. Together. No kids. This is a business trip for Gould - fundraising, admissions, parent relations. But it's also our first trip away from the kids for more than a few days. If you tune into this blog, you'll read alternating entries from The two of us. Maybe you'll learn something about Asia, but you'll definitely learn something about us! At the end you will need to vote for your favorite Lehman. Just kidding (but you probably will like one of us better).

  3. Baskin Robbins at the top of Victoria Peak and a brisk walk down helps with Jet Lag. Nice View too. Enjoy Amy. Amazing country.
