The past 2 weeks have been a whirlwind. After Portugal, Karl returned to Shanghai for a whopping 24 hours before heading to Beijing, then Tokyo, and finally back to Shanghai. He spent the weekend at home, ill with his first Asian cold.
Meanwhile, Lila went to the US for a few days of meetings followed by a quick trip to Chile. When we mean quick, we are talking 15 hours on the ground in Santiago. What a shame it wasn't longer; it is such a beautiful city. Within 4 days, she spent 40 hours sitting on airplanes. Upon return to Shanghai, Lila had 2 team members visiting from the US. Tired of sitting for so long, she had requested a pedometer.
Back in Shanghai together, Lila struggled to stay awake past 8pm each night. The weekend finally came and we spent much of it socializing and making up for lost time. We went out for drinks Friday evening, met up with US work visitors, ran errands on Saturday (including to the flower market & a sporting goods store), had brunch with co-workers, and got Vietnamese cooking lessons and dinner on Sunday.
