Well, as I will not be able to post from Urumqi I will give a short briefing on our plans so far.

Arrival 18.30 on Aug. 1st. From the airport we will take a taxi and go to Vicky’s apartment. That’s where I am going to stay. We will have home cooked dinner (yummi) and talk. On Sunday, we will go to translator offices to get some papers translated and to get them notarised. In the afternoon I will meet the elder sisters and their families. They are very sceptical about me. Since the riots they do not like my moustache. Chinese do not have beards; ok very few have a little. But the Uyghur, those who started the riots have. Now they think people with beards are bad.

On Monday, August 3rd we will get our marriage registered and after that we go to Beijing for the honeymoon, hehe! When we are in Beijing, I should be able to post again. On Tuesday we want to go to the Danish Embassy and apply for a tourist visa for Vicky. If she gets the visa she will be able to go to Denmark with me on August 15th. We will see.

Arnold:
Thanks Hajo , that makes it all clear for us . Yes , here comes the big " BUT " ... you left one thing out and I'm curious now . Are you going to shave your Mustache ???

Hajo:
Well Arnold, I am going to keep it! I told Vicky that she could tell the family I couldn't take it of. The borderpolice might not let me get into China if the there is a different in the passport picture and the real me, hehe.

I told her that I would shave it off if she feels uncomfortable when kissing :icon_cheesygrin:

Okay , that might take about twelve day's before that happen's ( going by Scott's average ) , so that gives Vicky enough time to get used to it ... you know the cheek to cheek thing . :icon_cheesygrin:

JimB:
Haj, You are welcome to contact me when you are in Beijing.  I will be there from the evening of the 11th. So the 13-15th. We can have lunch or dinner.  If interested PM me and I will give you a number to call.  If not it is cool.
