I am back from an Asia trip that took my wife and I through Tokyo, Seoul, Hong Kong (briefly), and Beijing. I hope to jumpstart this diary with a travelogue of what we did, complete with pictures (where appropriate). In the meantime, I hope you will enjoy this teaser image:

Here's my New York report as promised. Sorry it's a week late, but when I get to my return trip, You'll understand why. I'm gonna have to break this one up because there's so damn much to talk about.

Friday, February 10: Arrival.

I left an hour early on Friday and raced home to pick up the dogs. Their boarding kennel has a 5 PM closing time, ( Read more... )
