      So, it's going to be Hangzhou and Suzhou. Is that your final answer? šŸ˜‚
      2 out of 3 is ok. 3 out of 3 (though doable) is crazy šŸ˜‚

      One thing .zeit is right about, there are too many things to cover in those 2 cities. You will have to prioritize and determine what are your must-do / must-see.
      That's the current idea, but it's too early to make firm plans. Anyway, with only 2 of us going, we can be flexible and play it by ear. Yes, there are too many things to cover, but that's true for most places. We are OK with just seeing a few.

          Err... there are people I know who do 3+ days trip to Europe (leave in the wee hours of Friday, come back in the early morning of Sunday). They don't mind doing it because:
          1. Singapore is boring
          2. Tickets are pretty cheap (ID ticket)
          3. Hotels are affordable (industry rate)
          4. They just need that latest season handbag
          :siam:

            Scoot, and not a good deal. Air tickets came to just over $500 per person! But we don't have the luxury of waiting for a good deal as we only have a narrow window to travel in the next few months. We're just not keen on SE Asia for this trip - my husband travels to some of them quite often, and I don't like beaches. Flight is about 5 hrs, I think.

                Crazy, right? But I also know people who will go to Europe for 3-4 days. HZ is as far as I will go for 3 days (actually 5 days if you include travel days).
