And scarves ('pay-gheen') are very popular too. I think he means the heavier pashmina type of scarves.</p> <p>Have a lovely flight! I hope you're not flying coach... like me. :p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule/page/2#post-748329 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 10:53:05 +0000 Suz 748329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Lyn...too bad....it would have been SO cool to meet up with you! </p> <p>I won't be as far south as you, only as far as Shanghai.

I am not going to the mainland this trip (improper travel documents, apparently ... *major eyeroll*) but I am sure your travel agency is a lot more competent than the travel agency of mom and dad (just kidding! LOVE THEM!) </p> <p>It's super hot right now; like uber humid. Don't forget a sun parasol, or buy one here. I burned despite SPF 50 and sun parasol with sunglasses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule/page/2#post-748304 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 07:57:20 +0000 Ornella 748304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing organizing skills.

Your capsule looks very promising, and I'm sure you will find everything suitable as planned. Say hello to China from me - my mother was born there by Norwegian missionaries during WW2. I long to travel to China myself, but the time hasn't been right yet. So long, take care! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747816 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 16:31:19 +0000 Anonymous 747816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Safe travels! What an exciting trip. Can't wait to read all about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747808 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 16:22:33 +0000 Suz 747808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, everyone!</p> <p>Angie, I hope I'll be warm enough. I have LOTS of layers including a wool turtleneck that goes over top of other layers easily and still fits under a jacket. And the outerwear is a trench coat and a rainproof gear-type anorak for casual (or torrentially rainy) days. I also have an umbrella. And gloves. And scarves. It's possible Vancouver will still be chilly for me, but it's the best I can manage. Friends will probably loan me something there if I get desperate. </p> <p>Footwear. The question is, what DON'T I have? </p> <p>1. DV heeled booties {won't be worn much in China, but will come out to play constantly in Vancouver).</p> <p>2. Josef Siebel lower heeled booties (will wear constantly wherever, as long as it is cool enough - these are all day walking shoes for me. </p> <p>3. plain black pointy toed "flats." (a teeny tiny wedge to them to make them more comfy for me) - to wear on hot days in Shanghai in the city, walking. </p> <p>4. Ecco Mary Janes with an athletic footbed, to wear walking everywhere if it is warm, especially if wearing a skirt</p> <p>5. black leather Ecco athletic shoes (look sort of like cons) for wearing on hikes with pants (and for exercise).</p> <p>Activities to include (but not limited to): </p> <p>All the usual sightseeing in Beijing: Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Great Wall, a hutong bicycle trip, visits with friends there, lots of eating, art district. Maybe the opera? </p> <p>Ditto Shanghai - plus some shopping, I hope! </p> <p>Hangzhou - visit to my daughter's orphanage. Plus tea plantation and other stuff. </p> <p>Vancouver: Visits with friends, walks, meals out, more walks, some shopping.</p> <p>Oh - and I leave tomorrow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747803 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 16:02:10 +0000 Ariadne 747803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, what a packing challenge. When do you leave? Hope you've got good rainwear--the rainy season kicked off here with absolute downpours this week (I know you know all about that, of course!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747791 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 15:30:58 +0000 Anonymous 747791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will be following your updates with interest, packing pro!</p> <p>Pretty Max wants to go too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747788 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 15:16:08 +0000 JulieJohn 747788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic looking stuff. Max is looking fab in cream and taupe. He seems to approve of your selections.</p> <p>I think I see a scarf amongst your things, which could do triple duty as a belt, a shoulder shawl with a dressy outfit, and a neck warmer when things turn chilly.</p> <p>Thanks for sharing these? What are some of the activities you will be doing? When is your trip? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747782 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 15:03:53 +0000 Angie 747782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love what I see! </p> <p>And my predictable question is: will you be warm enough - where is the outerwear? </p> <p>What are you packing for footwear?</p> <p>Hi Max </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/introducing-the-chinavancouver-trip-capsule#post-747756 Sun, 14 Oct 2012 13:54:14 +0000 Krista 747756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great, Suz!

Looks so coherent and colourful. I can't wait to see you in these outfits. Do keep us posted. </p>
