Almost 70 & again in China

Big visits_011.jpg
Dad takes a rest in my guest room after a long flight. This is the second time my parents went the long way to China, and (again) my father said this would be the last time. I admire my parents, and two years does make a difference when you’re around 70. Without going into details, this time it went well “against all odds”. Anyway, we all have our physical ups and downs, and who knows, maybe a wedding invitation in another two years time will be a good reason to go “one more last time”.

Pappa slapper av i gjesterommet, passelig knekt av lang flytur og jetlag. Dette er andre gangen mine foreldre tok den lange turen til Kina, ikke helt uten press, og man kan si at det gikk bra ”mot all odds”, så det er kanskje noe i det når pappa sier at dette ble siste gangen. Vel, vi får se om det går an å komme på nye gode argumenter for å ta turen igjen om ett par år, bryllups invitasjoner kan være vanskelige å takke nei til, vi får evt. se mhp timingen.
