Grandma has landed!

Excitement reigned on the 16 April as I set off for the airport to collect my mother. We made it to the airport in record time after I got in the car and told Gao Yi that the flight was early and had actually landed! Mum had come through just as I sprinted up to the arrivals gate! She proudly showed me her new suitcase she had especially bought but went on to tell my that we would have to cut it open as the code was not working!

When we got home Sam and I googled the lock type and tried various ways to open it, all to no avail. One web site suggested 999 but Sam tried 000 and it worked, it turned out that Mum hadn't actually set a code at all!

On the first day our tried and tested jet lag cure was put to work once more and mum thoroughly enjoyed her and hour and a half massage. The next couple of days were spent sightseeing on the river, lunching with Sam, at the fabric market and spending time with the boys.

It took mum a while to get used to having an Ayi!

William and Oliver enjoyed taking Grandma for a coffee!
