Thanks. I've never gotten around to getting QQ or wechat on my phone. This may be what motivates me.

Focking sweet! I just landed back here last night.

 

Unfortunately my luggage did not make the trip. :mad:

Also, did you ever get around to having a custom suit made? If so, I'd like to hear details.

I was furious last night. Pretty much ALL of my clothes are gone. The engagement ring I bought. Medication. Anniversary presents. Books I need for work. EVERYTHING.

 

It appears Delta didn't get my bags delivered to the Chinese airline in time, so they are still in Seattle. Supposed to arrive tomorrow night. We shall see.

 

No, I never did. I never have occasion to wear one, so it seemed like a waste.

 

I will be having one made before the wedding next summer, so will let you know how that goes.

That still happens in 2017 with all the bar code scanners and such?

Sounds fishy. I had a laptop and some other stuff stolen from a checked bag years ago flying from Ft Lauderdale to NYC.

 

I imagine luggage thieves might target international travelers specifically. Good luck.

Yep. Took me many phone calls to find it too. Apparently, delta delivered it late to the Chinese airline. It's going to be delivered to my apartment late tomorrow.

I don't remember what it was about. I know it was a bunny thread I hikacked.

 

And yeah, was planning on doing a short weekend trip this weekend. Typhoon may make that unpleasant.
