We Made it to Hong Kong






We have arrived safely in Hong Kong. Our flight from LA to Hong Kong took about 15 hours. We were told that we would have to make a layover in Taiwan for more fuel due to a strong head and weather, but we did not have to. Jodie was able to sleep alot on the plane, Brian chose to eat instead. The food was very good, Brian even ate raw salmon, that was oh so good!

It is early Saturday Morning here and today we are planning to go to the Mountain Peak on Hong Kong Island and then go to Hong Kong Disneyland, and end with a Harbour Cruise. We realized once we got here that somehow we did not pack our Hong Kong guide book so hopefully we don't get to lost, luckily it seems that alot of people speak english. Also we think we may have somehow forgotten to pack the locket we made for the foster mom. So we may have to send it after we return.

When we checked into our hotel they gave us a very nice room on the 17th floor looking out onto the Harbour, very spectacular at night. But it was a smoking room, So we returned to the front desk to see if there was another room available and she said all they had left was a suite on the 8th floor with an even better view at no extra charge. I tell ya, this high life living is difficult. First Business class on the plane and now extra fancy suites.
