Day 2

Had a great flight. Not much sleep but a good rest.  Hotel is comfortable, warm but overcast day. The challenge today is to work out this iPad and wifi so that we communicate with you all.  Let's know if you are able to read this.

Hong Kong is big so we will venture out tomorrow to see a little of it.  Not sure if it will be the shops!  

We have managed to connect with everything so far.  Hotel support is very attentive and gracious.  Food is different.  Have yet to see how far the Hong Kong dollar will go.

Have found a newspaper in English but no TV as yet.  Room is very ornamental - a big screen which looks like a mirror so we need to do some exploring and push some more buttons.

Thinking of you all as you settle into Papamoa/the Mount.  Enjoy!

  2. Hi there - it is working!
    Sounds like Hong Kong has been the perfect place for your first stop... you do know Mum there are lots and lots of shops, and they also have post offices... so you can always go shopping and post back!
    We are are the Mount. Looks like it is going to be good weather. Girls travelled really well yesterday, which is great. Alice woke with a croupy cough this morning - sounds nastier than what it really is. Julia was very worried, so no sleep in for me this morning!
    Enjoy the rest of your time in Hong Kong and your next flight to Frankfurt.
    Take care
    Love from all of us x

  3. So great to see you are using the blog!!! Well done!
    Boys have all gone fishing this morning. We are about to go to Bayfair and test out Rebecca's wheelchair!!
    At Katherine's very flash apartment - rather nice! Think you should look at staying here one time!!
    Try and check out some shops - there are heaps of malls. Take a photo of your room on the i-pad and send it to your blog - next lesson!!
    Love Deb and Andrea
