I don't remember. Boys and toys
I started this blog in 2010 to make an accounting of my collecting and puzzling travels. Since 2017 that small collection has developed into a museum. Our travels are now together. I am joined by my husband and puzzle prototyper George Miller. We shall endeavor to entertain the random reader with highlights from Puzzle Palace and snippets of our adventures together.

Day 3 part 1
This morning we start out by meeting George and Oskar at their hotel for a bit of sightseeing. AJ is joining us and taking us for a walk in a park and sun yat sen memorial hall. From there it's off to lunch and the Mf8 warehouse before meeting with another company. And of course tonight is the big dinner. I've been told there will be around 30 people there. This should be fun.
Aj finally took me/us to see the 5 goats statue in GZ. It's only taken me 5 years to get him to do it.
We lunched with Mr. Fok and Otis joined us. Oskar passed around a few toys and we mucked about a bit.
When done we headed off to mr. Foks warehouse for a look around. The two visitors were suitably impressed and enjoyed their look around.
We're now sitting in Starbucks enjoying a chat with yet another manufacturer. It's a whirlwind trip to say the least.

Day 2
Today saw us at another factory. Only 1 this time but it was a BIG one. I can't give the name of course, but this time both George and Oskar were thrilled!
As for me? Well, I was with great company. I got to see two machines in action that I haven't seen before. An ultrasonic sealer and a blower injection molder. They were just so cool! Yet again I am amazed by what goes into making a puzzle.
We were dropped off at the train station and after a hiccup or 2 I was finally able to get us tickets to GZ. As promised Ming was there to pick us up. We headed off to meet with witeden and had the pleasure of his company for dinner. A bit of cube signing later and we sent the big boys off to the hotel. Again it is late and I'm dead. Too much fresh air I think because there is no way I'm getting old!
