We're all officially on vacation- Matthew's out of school, Tony's home from work and me, well... according to Matthew, I am always on vacation. We'll be together for the next three weeks. Three glorious weeks of togetherness....yeah. We went into the city today to have lunch with a friend of ours, Alice. She lives in Shanghai most of the time and returns to Hong Kong every few weeks to see her family. So, since we're all nomads, we decided that it would be great to get together for the Christmas holidays. We met at Xintiandi today for lip smacking dim sum and what not. Two hours of eating non-stop and we all waddled out of there. We said our goodbye's to Alice and we'll see her when she returns after the New Year.In the meantime, it's a very small world. We headed back to pick up the shuttle bus to get home and I ran into my friend Nicole. Tony looked at Brian (Nicole's husband) as if he knows him from somewhere but can't quite place him. Brian does the same. While we were chit chatting, we find out that Tony and Brian worked together at Duracell in Bethel, Connecticut. What a small world! Brian is now with 3M and is here on assignment in China as well. Funny thing- it turns out that they live in the building next door to us. It shows us that the world is truly a small place.
