It has been a very busy few days as we are desparately trying to get all of our Christmas shopping done here in China, weed everything out of our apartment, ship stuff home, and pack everything else before leaving on Saturday.  We hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!  We managed to find several places in Beijing serving Thanksgiving dinner, but we settled on Tim's Texas BBQ which was having an all-you-can-eat turkey and dressing and fixin's buffet.  We enjoyed it, but it wasn't as good as home!  Anyway, check back in a few days as we are preparing our final "what we will miss" and "what we won't miss" lists for our final postings from Beijing.  Then it's off to Tokyo for some final Asian site-seeing before heading back to the US.  We are ready to get back home and see all of you soon!
