From San Francisco to Hong Kong by air is 15 hours of movies, boredom, naps, and anxiety. I arrived at 6:30 AM to a gigantic and sleek airport built upon a man made island 20 minutes outside of central Hong Kong. The bus ride to the hotel took us across several massive bridges and through a very long tunnel that opens up to a skyline that would give New York a serious run for it's money. Skyscrapers are everywhere and there is a notable lack of any houses even outside of the city. People live vertical here and my place is no different. My hotel is in the Kowloon area of the city and is run by the YMCA. I got to my room around 9 in the morning and decided to take a nap before heading out to explore. My nap lasted for 12 hours.
So here I am! I will follow with pictures as soon as I can find a cheap internet cafe.

ReplyDeleteGlad you are there and no problems. We are at Jamestown, NY this evening. Will go to Finger Lakes, NY tomorrow morning. It is a cool 55-60. Had a good drive up partly sunny. It is good to be on vacation.
ReplyDeleteBe safe, Keith. We love you.
Yay China!
