I can assure you, had I been a passenger on this Lufthansa flight, I would have FLIPPED out.

Evidently, I can’t embed YouTube videos without screwing up my layout. Gotta figure out why. In the meantime, visit the link above.

I'm an American expat living on the fringe of Chinese society. Thanks to a lifetime spent moving around, I often feel like an outsider. This blog explores life in Beijing, China, the occasional aviation topic, expat issues, random travel experiences and interesting things I see, read and hear. If you want to know more about my latest hobby, visit Sewing on the Fringe, where I blog about learning to sew in Beijing. And for daily documentation of Beijing's ever changing air quality, visit My Beijing Window. And, yes, I do wear my santa hat year-round. ;)

Good times!

Third Eye – thanks for the tip on the kite festival. Sounds cool. Already the parks and riverside here in Linyi are covered in kids and families out flying their kites. Always a sign that Spring is near!
Sandra – What a welcome to China, eh?! LOL What a trip!
