For the first time in my life I'll be flying in Business Elite (there is no first on international flights, this is the top level) and I will be in a fully flat bed -- the seat reclines to 180 degree flat. This is like a dream.
My husband will be flying in coach -- but I'll trade with him for few hours so that he can stretch out and rest in my bed and I'll go read something in his seat. It is more economical but still pretty cool.
I'll be spending 6 days in Japan and 25 days in China. I'm making plans on where I want to go and what to see and where to stay on days I don't have class. Last time I was in Japan was 10 years ago, so I don't remember much.
It is my 6th trip to China (2 weeks, 10 days, 7-8 months, 1 month, 1 month) but everything in China changes so quickly, it is like arriving to a new place each time.
I'm just nervous about not seeing the baby for that long. The longest I've ever been away is 1 week.
Booked tickets to Japan and China!!!
