C/M/T/HK Trip Day 1

We arrived after 15 and 1/2 hours of flying from Chicago O'Hara to Hong Kong. The plane was almost full. The economy class seating is very tight and we felt wedged into place for most of that time. We managed to sleep a couple of hours, a few sudoku puzzles and read travel guides for China and Hong Kong. We met Vivian right after passing through customs and took the bus to her parent's apartment for dinner. The photos are from their apartment on the 39th floor. Vivian's mother cooked our first wonderful meal in Hong Kong. We took a rental van to Shenzhen, China for our first nights sleep. We are exhausted but thankful for a safe trip.

China/Macau/Taiwan/Hong Kong Trip 2008

It all started in 2006 when our friends Vannie and Vivian suggested a trip to Taiwan and Hong Kong in 2008. Here is perhaps the first planning session around a good meal of Hot Pot.
