Today was mainly a day of getting ready. We had a great lunch with Pui's family at a belt sushi place, where we ate ourselves silly. Then we shopped for about five and a half hours. We returned to our condo and dragged up all the stuff we had bought over the last two days, and I realized that the bags I had packed already wouldn't cut it. So I unpacked them and got out the Big Purple Bag. I put all the heavy stuff in the Little Gray Bag, most of the rest of the non-clothes stuff in the Middle Red Bag. The Big Purple Bag is packed with an amazing amount of clothes, and actually weighs just over half of the Little Grey Bag. I got everything in and packed and managed to watch "Transformers" on TV at the same time. I imagine I'll have dreams of the suitcases transforming into Customs Officials.
I talked to my parents this morning - they were preparing for a storm they expected would hit Seattle that night. They have an emergency generator all set and ready to go. It was snowing hard when we talked, and they expected high winds to arrive in a few hours. Snow to weigh down trees and wind to knock them over. Fun times! Here in Bangkok it was sunny and 88 degrees F. We're going to have some adjusting to do!
