packed!


We are about all set to go back to Pittsburgh! Just packed our bags moments ago. In the process, we have also sort of packed our emotions. Now going to catch a short nap, wake up at 2am, hit the road to Changi Airport, say our goodbyes, and catch the 7.20am flight....

Dear families and friends, thanks for making our stay in sunny Singapore as warm as it could be... Thanks for the love-gifts, presents, meals, time, etc. that we received from all of you.

Gorgeous day in Chinatown. Bright and sunny... a great contrast to the cold and snowy weather in Pittsburgh.
