Kate's Chronicles
Left home at 1600 yesterday and managed to survive the long haul flight to Hong Kong with much liquid courage provided by Qantas Club. Think I even managed 40 winks on the flight which is a first for me. Mind you they had **** movies available and the system wasn't working properly so no "movies on demand" :(
Arrived in Hong Kong at some unearthly hour...so early even the shops weren't open!!! Checked in for my flight to Nanjing, they located and transferred my baggage (no lost baggage!!) and bonus....been upgraded to Business Class!!! woo hoo gotta love that!! Maybe they took pity on me...not looking my best at that hour of the morning.
By this time the shops have opened so I've done my window shopping - Chanel, Versace, Hermes, Tiffany etc etc. Drooled over the new season Prada handbags - so many beautiful choices all of which are WAY out of my price range!!
Now ensconced in Qantas lounge until my flight in 3 1/2 hours. Showered, refreshed and starting to feel half human again.....hopefully looking a bit better as well. Only thing left to do is grab my duty free alcohol on the way to my flight and bon voyage I'll be on the home run to Nanjing!1
Talk to you all once I'm settled back in. Bye for now. xxxx

Jane Thomasson Glad you arrived in one piece Kate, good to hear from you
Ray Hi Kate. Ming and I will now be flying from Shanghai to Hefei (Anhui) and not going by train, so probably won't be able to catch up. All the best you part-time han-yu !
