Smooth sailing

I am grateful that this buying trip has been relatively painless and smooth. Though I came down with some sort of Asian flu, massive quantities of bitter Hong Kong roadside herbal drinks helped. Living in HK and commuting daily into China was a great strategy. The thought of staying in some mosquito and smoke filled hotel room with smog choked air outside was more than I could bear. However, the sacrifice was that I did not make it into any remote mountains, only scheduling meetings in the south. I think given how perilous the spring trip was, taking a break from being Indiana Jones was a reasonable route. Our rare tasting oolongs will focus more heavily on Taiwan teas then.
