Open Invitation

Let it be said:

You are invited.

Not only are you invited, but we encourage you to visit.

And yes, the Olympics will be in China next summer. More specifically, the Beijing Olympics will last from August 8th to August 24th in 2008. More info at http://www.olympic.org/uk/games/beijing/index_uk.asp

And no, we will not be in Bejing. But from where you are, we'll be really close! The flight from Hong Kong to Beijing is 3 hours. The flight from Shanghai to Beijing is more like 2 hours. And if you can get us tickets to the Olympics along with you, you'll even have resident guides for your entire trip!

Our small bed and breakfast may book fast during this period, so do feel free to plan ahead.

But all Olympics talk aside, I dearly hope that all of our family will make the time to visit while we're away. And I do hope that our friends with any interest and ability to travel to China will take advantage of our foreign residency.

You are welcome to stay. Do not wait for another invitation. Rest assured that you are welcome at our home.
