Hong bao ride on Sunday?

[Bernie Lawrence]

Hey gang!

Are any of you around for a red envelope ride through the water village? I’m riding over to Pudong on Sunday morning, with a bunch of red envelopes to distribute among the kids there, a tradition introduced by Colin and Devin several years back and carried on sporadically over the years.

I know this googlegroup is mostly made up of folks who have left the country, but I’ll send it out into the ether, just in case someone’s in town.

Xin nian, kuai le,
Bernie

Hi Bernie,

Looking forward in seeing you tomorrow!

Sorry, I cannot join. I am in Vietnam and enjoy some warm sunshine at the beach and with kite surfing. See you.

Great! Jan is going to try to join us, after staying up on a red-eye flight back to Shanghai.  I put 10 RMB in each envelope because it’s easier to do that than make 8 RMB – Katie says I should put 11 RMB in each one, because we’ll give it to the kids who then run to their parents, who I’m sure pocket the money. Katie says if I put in 11, the parents will probably give the 1 RMB coin to the child. So I think I’ll do that.

I have 30 envelopes done so far, which won’t last long! Last time, a few years back, Tim and Ryan and I each had 30 envelopes and we were swarmed (we tried to limit our distributing to one envelope per child but who knows?)  We were done in a half an hour!

I am just done stuffing my Hong Bao envelopes with 10 RMB each. How about 9 am tomorrow? By then it should have warmed up a bit.

9:00 a.m. Would be fine with me. That means I can leave Gubei at 7:30, in
the bright sunshine! As long as Mikko and Tina are okay with rendezvousing
then.

This is fine with us! 9AM it will be!
