On my way home

Hello Family, Friends and Neighbours:

Good bye Singapura.

I am on my way home today. I am flying to Hong Kong and staying overnight. I leave Hong Kong on Monday and arrive in Toronto Monday around 6:00 pm. I will be greeted by the chilly fall air.

I have seen so much during this trip. This planet is amazing.

Please continue to follow our blog if you wish. I update it frequently.

All my love,

April
