All done!

After a day and a half of a military precision funeral arrangement, all done! Must quicker and easier than the previous one. Reason: no one gave a crap about "you know who". Get it done over with as compared to the last time; veryone wanted to "participate". This time was whatever.

At the funeral place, it was the same funeral hall; same workers, same staff, same taoist monks. Pretty much the same ceremony less the monks from Lantau Island. This time, stuck to the script and to the funeral package bought.

Yes, I did thru the crematorium again - both front and back. The body and casket in one end, bone fragments out this little hole. This time because there were so many bookings, everything was rushed. Bone fragments should have been smaller but it was barely an hour. I think it was less than an hour, should have timed it. I saw one pelvic bone still large and all. So here went the magnet as a hammer head. Smacked! There you go. This time no one fought over who carry the urn with the ashes. Everyone just pointed at me and said, well you are the grandson of the eldest son; it should be you. Why not. So I carried to car and thru to the Zhuhai border back to the Macau. Very unceremonious. The urn was still hot; bone just came out from the oven at over 750C. Of course!

The urn is being stored in this same storage unit as grandma's. Today, the family just picked the permanent home for them. In three weeks, the place will be ready and after the 3-7 (that 21 days of mourning period) was over.

Wednesday, me back to Shanghai. And iron-wife just had a nice spa at the Banyon Tree resort in Bangkok today. But hey, I won't need to fly back to Shanghai from Bangkok on this 1am flight. But she's flying Thai biz class.
